Built for the hearing date.
A Delaware court that grants a TRO or preliminary injunction usually sets the security at the same time and gives you days to post it — often the order is not effective until the bond is filed. Here is the whole process:
Send us the file
Apply online with the order setting the security, the parties, and the amount the court deemed proper. If the order isn’t entered yet, send the motion and the amount you expect.
A surety specialist underwrites it
A specialist reviews the order, your financials, and any collateral, then returns a quote. The amount is fixed by the court — underwriting decides approval and any collateral, not the penal sum.
Execute & file
Once you bind, we issue the executed bond on the court’s required form with the power of attorney attached, ready to file with the Register in Chancery so the injunction can take effect.
What it is and who needs it.
Why the court demands security
A preliminary injunction or TRO freezes the other side before the case is decided. If that injunction later proves wrongful, the enjoined party has been harmed — so Delaware requires the moving party to put up security first.
The injunction bond guarantees the enjoined party’s costs and damages get paid if the injunction is dissolved or shown to have been wrongfully entered. The Court of Chancery sets the amount it considers proper for that risk, and the order often does not take effect until the bond is filed.
Because the surety stands behind that amount, a large penal sum can require collateral and financials. The court has wide discretion in setting the sum — it often fixes a low or nominal amount where the movant’s likelihood of success is strong — and we’ll size and underwrite to whatever the order specifies.
