Cap. 16 Art. 199Obligation of curator.

(1) Upon the completion of the inventory or description, the court shall, before allowing the application, direct the curator designate to bind himself with hypothecation of his own property limited to a fixed sum, well and truly to administer the property of the absentee, and to render, on the termination of the curatorship, a true and faithful account of his administration.

(2) Where the court deems it expedient that the curator designate should give security, the obligation of the surety shall also precede the appointment of the curator.
