In an action in which security for costs has been given the defendant may at any time before judgment after reasonable notice to the plaintiff move the court for additional security on the part of the plaintiff and if on such motion the court be satisfied that the surety has removed from this state or is not sufficient, or the amount of bond is insufficient, the action may be dismissed unless within a reasonable time to be fixed by the court sufficient surety be given by the plaintiff in an amount designated by the court.
