[TITLE 52. Table of Contents]
52-2-1 Time in which to qualify - Failure - Office declared vacant.
Whenever any person duly elected or appointed to any office
of the state or any of its political subdivisions, fails
to qualify for such office within sixty days after the date
of beginning of the term of office for which he was elected
or appointed, such office shall thereupon become vacant and
shall be filled as provided by law. Whenever the bond of
any officer of the state or of any of its political subdivisions
is canceled, revoked, annulled or otherwise becomes void
or of no effect, without another proper bond being given
so that continuance of bonded protection is afforded, the
office of such officer shall thereupon become vacant and
shall be filled as provided by law. Any elected or appointed
official who has failed on the effective date of this act
to qualify for the position to which he was elected or appointed,
shall be deemed to come within the provisions of this act,
and the office of such officer shall become vacant at the
end of forty days after the effective date of this act unless
legal bond is given before the expiration of such period,
and such office shall be filled as provided by law.
