Deposit of Fees with Marshal

No process in rem in an action proved for in the Admiralty Supplemental Rules shall be served, except on behalf of the United States, or on special order of the Court, unless the party seeking the same shall deposit with the Marshal for this district such sums as may be required by the Marshal as an advance against attachment and custodial costs. This rule does not apply if seizure is effected pursuant to an order of Court appointing a custodian of the property seized, in which case no deposit shall be required. Further, the party seizing the property may be required by the Marshal, to give him a full release and agreement to indemnify the Marshal for any liability which he may incur as a result of arresting the vessel or other property. -2-
