Questions about this bond
Can I choose the amount from the funds I handle?
Use the amount directed by the authority requesting your bond. A fund balance alone does not determine the accepted bond amount.
Does this cover the whole office staff?
An individual officeholder's bond does not automatically bond coworkers. Match the applicant and capacity in the request.
