Code of Virginia - Title 8.01 Civil Remedies And Procedure - Section 8.01-4.1 How jurisdiction determined when proceeding is on penal bond

§ 8.01-4.1. How jurisdiction determined when proceeding is on penal bond

When a proceeding before a court is on a penal bond, with condition for the payment of money, the jurisdiction shall be determined as if the undertaking to pay such money had been without a penalty. And when jurisdiction depends on the amount of a judgment, if it be on such a bond, the jurisdiction shall be determined by the sum, payment whereof will discharge the judgment.

(Code 1950, § 8-3; 1977, c. 617.)
