(a) If the judgment debtor shows the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands that an appeal from the foreign judgment is pending or will be taken, or that a stay of execution has been granted, the court shall stay enforcement of the foreign judgment until the appeal is concluded, the time for appeal expires, or the stay of execution expires or is vacated, upon proof that the judgment debtor has furnished the security for the satisfaction of the judgment required by the state or territory in which it was rendered.
(b) If the judgment debtor shows the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands any ground upon which enforcement of a judgment of the Superior Court would be stayed, the court shall stay enforcement of the foreign judgment for an appropriate period, upon requiring the same security for the satisfaction of the judgment which is required in the United States Virgin Islands.
