§28B-5. Bond; inventory; accounting

(a)        Before receiving any property the judge shall require the receiver to qualify by giving bond in an amount and with surety approved by him.

(b)        Within 30 days after the date of his appointment, the receiver  shall file an inventory of all of the property of the absentee in military service taken in charge. Every year thereafter, within 30 days of the anniversary date of his appointment the receiver shall file a full and complete inventory and accounting with the clerk of superior court under oath, of the amount of property received by him,  or invested by him, and the manner and nature of such investment, and  his receipts and disbursements for the past year in the form of debit  and credit. The clerk shall inspect and audit the inventory and accounting and if he approves the same he shall endorse his approval thereon, which shall be deemed prima facie evidence of correctness. If the clerk finds evidence of misconduct or default on the part of the receiver he shall report the same to the court. In such event, the procedures found in G.S. 28B-7(b) shall be followed.
