Questions about this bond
Is this a general bond for every deputy?
It is the special-deputy offering associated with Shelby County. Match that role to your appointment request before applying.
Does the bond confer police powers?
No. The appointing authority determines your appointment and authority; purchasing a bond does not establish either.
Where do I send the completed bond?
Use the recipient and delivery instructions in your appointment paperwork. Complete that step after the bond is issued.
