§ 48:4-2.
Receivers appointed by the United States District Court for the district of New Jersey
or by the Superior Court of this State, or trustees in bankruptcy, who pursuant to
an order of such court are operating any autobus, shall carry such insurance, or make
such other provisions as the court appointing such receivers or trustees may by order
direct, to indemnify such receivers or trustees against loss from the liability imposed
by law for damages on account of bodily injury or death suffered by any person or
persons as a result of an accident occurring by reason of the ownership, maintenance
or use of such autobusses; but such receivers or trustees shall continue to carry
such insurance as is required to be carried by other owners and operators of autobusses
under the provisions of this chapter until such court shall have made an order as
herein provided, and upon the making of any such order as herein provided, a certified
copy of the same shall be filed with the officer or officers with whom insurance policies
are required to be filed by this chapter. As a condition precedent to the making of such an order such receivers or trustees
in bankruptcy shall deposit with the Commissioner of Banking and Insurance of this
State the sum of $100,000.00 in cash or in stocks, bonds, or bonds and mortgages,
approved by the commissioner, which cash, stocks, bonds and bonds and mortgages shall
be held by the commissioner as security for the liability imposed by law upon such
receivers or trustees in bankruptcy, for personal injury and death resulting from
the operation of said autobusses by such receivers or trustees in bankruptcy, and
shall be subject to levy under execution issued upon judgments for such bodily injuries
or death against such receivers or trustees in bankruptcy. Such order shall remain in force and effect only so long as there shall remain in
the hands of the commissioner cash, bonds, stocks, or bonds and mortgages aggregating
$100,000.00 and meeting with the approval of the commissioner from time to time. So long as said deposit shall be maintained as herein provided, and no levy shall
be made thereon, the receivers or trustees making the same shall be entitled to collect
and receive the interest and dividends thereon, and to withdraw any deposited stocks,
bonds and bonds and mortgages upon depositing with said commissioner other like securities. Said deposit, or the balance thereof remaining, shall be returned to the receivers
or trustees making the same upon proof satisfactory to the commissioner that all liabilities
secured by said deposit have been discharged or adequately provided for.
