§ 402. Sheriff or deputy to attend term of appellate division. A term

of the appellate division of the supreme court must be attended by the

sheriff of the county in which it is held, his under sheriff, or one of

his deputies, each of whom must act under the direction of the court or

of the presiding justice. The sheriff of the county must cause the room

in which a term of the appellate division is held to be properly heated,

ventilated, lighted, and kept comfortably clean and in order. The

sheriff must also provide the court with all necessary stationery and

minute-books, upon the written requisition of the court or of the

justice presiding at the term, and shall defray the necessary expense of

telegraphing the day calendar to such county clerks as the court shall

direct; also the necessary expense of transmitting printed cases and

papers to the reporter; to the various libraries and to the justices of

the appellate division. The fees of the sheriff for attending a term of

the appellate division and all expenses incurred by a sheriff in

obedience to this section must be audited by the comptroller and paid

out of the treasury of the state.
