What this bond does

The bond backs the applicant’s promise to indemnify the officer for the action described in the accepted form. Explain the requested process rather than selecting a bond from the case type alone.

Who needs it
An Ohio person or entity asked to furnish indemnity for a sheriff’s action.
Who it protects
The officer named in the form receives its stated protection. The bond does not promise that the applicant’s legal position is correct or that collection will succeed.

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 indemnity distinct from other security

A court order and a sheriff’s indemnity request may concern different obligations. Use the request naming the officer and process here; a bond intended to stay a judgment is not interchangeable with process indemnity.

This listing provides one RLI application with no amount or term specified. Use the requested security and dates for your matter.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Keep the written request and applicant’s legal name available. RLI determines the documents needed for its application.
  2. Have the case reference and any relevant writ or property description handy so the proposed form can be checked.
  3. After issuance, compare the bond with the request and deliver it as the recipient directs. Purchase does not itself complete delivery.

Questions about this bond

Who applies when an attorney handles the case?

Does this page give a required Ohio amount?

No. Obtain the requested amount and period from the actual instructions.

Can I begin online?

Yes. Purchase Now opens RLI in a new tab. Application, issuance and the recipient’s acceptance are separate stages.
