§1229. Failure of depository; sale of security
If any depository bank fails or suspends, or fails on due demand without just cause, to pay any funds deposited with it, the fiscal officer with whom the collateral has been deposited as security, by direction of the authority which let the deposit in the bank, shall, after ten days advertisement in any newspaper published at the domicile of the authority, sell the security for a sufficient amount to cover the deposit and accrued interest, to the highest bidder. The fiscal officer with whom the collateral was deposited as security may, with the approval of the depository bank, or receiver, or liquidator, or judge of court who has jurisdiction over the receiver or liquidator, sell at private sale the security or a sufficient amount thereof to cover the deposit.
