35-06-09. Exoneration of pledgeholder
A pledgeholder for reward cannot exonerate the pledgeholder from the pledgeholder's
undertaking, and a gratuitous pledgeholder can do so only by giving reasonable notice to the
pledgor and pledgee to appoint a new pledgeholder, and in case of their failure to agree, by
depositing the property pledged with some impartial person who then will be entitled to a
reasonable compensation for that person's care of the same.
