If a referee or commissioner is appointed by a court and the duties of the referee or commissioner will, or are reasonably anticipated to, involve the custody of personal property or the receipt or disbursement of moneys, the order of appointment shall provide that before entering upon the duties, the referee or commissioner shall execute an undertaking to the State of California, to the effect that the referee or commissioner will faithfully discharge the duties of referee or commissioner, as the case may be, and obey the orders of the court therein. The order of appointment shall specify the amount of the undertaking, but a failure to so specify shall not invalidate the order.
Notes
Requires an appointment order for a referee or commissioner whose duties involve, or are reasonably expected to involve, custody of personal property or receipt or disbursement of money to require an undertaking before duties begin. The order must specify the amount, but failure to specify it does not invalidate the appointment order.
