A.(1) The marshal shall be a resident elector of the territorial jurisdiction of the court and shall possess a high school diploma or its equivalent as determined by the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education; however, the requirement of a high school diploma or its equivalent does not apply to a marshal in office as a marshal on August 15, 1997, for purposes of his qualification to remain in office or to seek reelection to a consecutive term.
(2) Before entering upon the discharge of his duties, the marshal shall give bond in favor of the city judge conditioned for the faithful performance of his duties and for the legal adjustment of all claims incurred against him in his official capacity.
