Plain-English Summary
Section 1573.1 lets a party challenge the property's stated value instead of being stuck with whatever figure the petition names. Either party can ask, when executing the replevin bond or the redelivery bond, or afterward with notice to the other side, for a hearing on the property's true value.
If the court sets a different value than what's stated in the petition, that court-determined value controls for figuring the bond amounts required under both Section 1573 and Section 1577.
