What this bond does

The applicant supplies security for the indemnity obligation described in the requested form. The obligation concerns a particular action by the receiving officer.

Who needs it
The party asked to furnish indemnity for a Maryland sheriff’s process, with the correct legal name and capacity from the request.
Who it protects
The accepted form specifies the protected officer and covered losses. It does not guarantee the applicant’s collection or replace another bond ordered in the case.

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 separate bond requests separate

A case can involve paperwork for more than one obligation. Use the request for indemnity to the sheriff here; do not select it solely because another court document also asks for a bond.

There is one RLI application link on this page. No amount or term is specified, so match the indemnity request before completing the application.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Have the written indemnity request, applicant’s name and recipient’s contact details ready. RLI determines its application-document requirements.
  2. Keep the case reference and relevant process instructions available so the proposed form can be matched to the requested action.
  3. After issuance, check the bond against the request and follow the recipient’s delivery instructions. The purchase does not itself file the bond.

Questions about this bond

Is this an estate or trustee bond?

No. This offering concerns indemnity for the sheriff’s specified action. A fiduciary’s duties require a different form when separately requested.

Who is giving the indemnity?

Use the person or entity identified in the written request. A representative preparing the application is not automatically the applicant.

Does the page establish a Maryland bond amount?

No. Take the amount and period from the actual request rather than assuming a standard.

What is the next step online?
