§ 21613. Justification of Sureties.
When the sureties or either of them are objected to, the surety or
sureties so objected to shall justify before the Court in which the action is
commenced, upon ten days notice of the time when they will so justify being
given to the plaintiff, or plaintiff's attorney. Upon the hearing and
