Landise, an attorney, initiated this litigation against Thomas Mauro alleging breach of a partnership agreement. The parties had been colleagues in a law firm in Washington, D.C.; however, at the time Landise filed the instant action, she was working for the federal government in Kansas. Given Landise’s non-resident status, Mauro filed a motion to require Lan-dise to post security for costs pursuant to D.C.Code § 15 — 703(a) (2001).2 The motion was granted on June 18,1999, and Landise deposited $3,139.33 into the court registry. No appeal was taken by Landise from the order directing her to post this security.
