A writ of attachment may be issued on the plaintiff's request and prior to the hearing required under section 32-08.1-02 if the plaintiff's request is accompanied by an affidavit stating the basis and amount of claim against the defendant and describing facts that constitute grounds for attachment under subdivision a, b, c, or d of subsection 1 of section 32-08.1-03. The court may issue the writ prior to the hearing required under section 32-08.1-02 only if the plaintiff demonstrates the probability of success on the merits, the existence of one or more of the grounds specified in subdivision a, b, c, or d of subsection 1 of section 32-08.1-03, and that, due to extraordinary circumstances, the plaintiff's interests cannot be protected by an appropriate order of the court, other than by directing the prehearing attachment of property.
The defendant must be served immediately after the attachment is completed with a copy of the plaintiff's request for the writ, a copy of the affidavit and all other documents offered in support of the request, and a notice of the availability of a hearing under section 32-08.1-17.
