How it works

Built for the hearing date.

In Connecticut a temporary injunction generally cannot issue until the bond is in place, so the bond can sit on the critical path to your order. Here is the whole process:

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

Why the court makes you post a bond

A temporary injunction freezes the status quo before the merits are decided. If it turns out the injunction should never have issued, the restrained party may have been harmed — so Connecticut makes the applicant post security up front.

The injunction bond answers the damages the opposing party suffers if you fail to prosecute the action to effect. That is why the court sets the amount to the potential harm rather than a flat figure, and why the surety underwrites you before issuing it.

Because the surety stands behind those damages, a large bond is usually collateralized — with cash, a letter of credit, or pledged assets — and supported by financials. We tell you what a given file needs before you commit.

Connecticut StatuteC.G.S. §52-472 provides that no temporary injunction may be granted, except in favor of the state or a public officer in respect to a matter of a public nature, until the party applying gives bond, with surety satisfactory to the court or judge granting the injunction, to the opposite party, to answer all damages in case the plaintiff fails to prosecute the action to effect. A bond need not be required when, for good cause shown, the court is of the opinion that a temporary injunction ought to issue without bond.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

What is a Connecticut injunction or TRO bond? +
It is the security C.G.S. §52-472 requires before a temporary injunction issues. The bond answers all damages the opposing party suffers if you fail to prosecute the action to effect. The court sets the amount, and a surety underwrites and issues the bond so the injunction can take effect.
How much does it cost? +
It is underwritten, not flat-rated. The court sets the penal sum under §52-472 to the potential damages, and a surety specialist reviews the matter, your financials, and any collateral and returns a premium quote — usually within one business day.
Who sets the bond amount? +
The court does. Under §52-472 the bond must be with surety satisfactory to the court or judge granting the injunction, sized to answer all damages if the action is not prosecuted to effect. We size the penal sum to what the court sets and underwrite from there.
Will I need to post collateral? +
Often, for a large bond. Because the surety stands behind the damages the bond secures, it is frequently collateralized with cash, a letter of credit, or pledged assets, and supported by financials. We tell you what your specific file requires before you commit.
How fast can the bond be issued? +
A specialist typically returns a quote within one business day of a complete application. Once you bind and any collateral is in place, the executed bond issues on the court’s required form, ready to file so the temporary injunction can issue.
