§ 16-102. In favor of co-obligors or co-debtors. In case of joint, or joint and several obligors or debtors, if one or more of them is about to remove outside of the jurisdictional limits of this State, taking their property with them, leaving one or more co-obligors or co-debtors bound with them for the payment of any sum of money, or for the delivery of any article of property, or for the conveyance of land at a certain time, which time has not arrived at the time of such intended removal, such co-obligor or co-debtor who remains is entitled, upon application, to relief by ne exeat, to compel the co-obligor or co-debtor who is about to remove to secure the payment of his or her part of the sum to be paid, or of the delivery of the property, or to convey, or to join in the conveyance of the land.
