What this bond does

The bond backs the indemnity promised for the sheriff’s specified action. Match that action to the writ or instructions rather than treating this as security for every obligation in the case.

Who needs it
A person or business asked to provide indemnity for a Delaware sheriff’s process request.
Who it protects
The officer named in the accepted form receives its stated protection. The applicant’s right to collect or recover property is not guaranteed by the bond.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Keep the county and case together

Include the receiving office’s county and the case reference with the request. A court name alone may not identify the officer who needs the indemnity.

One RLI application is available here. No amount or term is specified, so take those details from the written request and keep any delivery directions for the issued bond.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Have the written request and applicant’s legal name ready. The provider will explain its supporting-document requirements.
  2. Keep the writ or other process instructions and any relevant property description available.
  3. After issuance, check the county, officer and case details before delivering the bond as instructed.

Questions about this bond

Who should be the applicant?

Use the party asked to supply the indemnity. An attorney handling the application is not automatically the party whose obligation is bonded.

Is this a public-official bond?

No. It concerns indemnity supplied for a requested action, not the sheriff’s general performance in office.

Can I assume a one-year term?

No term is displayed here. Use the period required for your specific request.

Does Purchase Now send the bond to the sheriff?

It opens RLI in a new tab to begin the application. After issuance, arrange delivery using the recipient’s instructions and confirm acceptance separately.
