1 Rule 2 Security for Costs

"The court, on motion or on its own initiative, may order any party to file an original bond for costs or additional security for costs in such an amount and so conditioned as it may designate. For failure to comply with the order the court may make such orders in regard to non-compliance as are just, and among others the following: an order striking out pleadings or staying further proceedings until the bond is filed or dismissing the action or rendering a judgment by default against the non-complying party."

2 See Cherner v. Transitron Electronic Corp., 221 F.Supp. 48 (D.C.Mass.).
