How it works

Built for the hearing date.

When a court conditions a TRO or injunction on security, you need the bond in hand before the order can take effect. Here's the entire process:

TODAY · 5 MINUTES

Tell us about the matter

The application captures the basics — the court, the docket or succession number, the penal sum the court (or the estate) has set, and who the principal is. Send the order, judgment, or inventory if you have it; if not, we ask for it once.

WITHIN 1 BUSINESS DAY

A specialist underwrites it

Court and fiduciary bonds are individually underwritten. A surety specialist reviews the penal sum, the fiduciary, and the file, runs a soft credit check, and returns a quote — usually within one business day. Larger penal sums may call for financials or collateral.

ONCE TERMS ARE SET

Execute & file

Approve the quote, post any collateral required, and we issue the executed bond on the court's required form with the power of attorney attached. File it with the clerk so the order, appeal, or appointment can take effect.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

Why the court wants security

A temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction forces the other side to stop — or start — doing something before the merits are decided. That is a powerful remedy granted on limited proof.

To balance it, Louisiana requires the applicant to post security so that, if the order turns out to have been wrongful, the enjoined party can be made whole for the costs incurred and damages sustained. The bond is that security.

The court sets the amount based on the potential harm to the enjoined party. Some matters are exempt by law — protective orders for domestic abuse, dating violence, stalking, or sexual assault require no security. Tell us the nature of the case and we'll confirm whether a bond is needed.

Louisiana AuthorityLa. Code of Civil Procedure art. 3610 provides that a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction shall not issue unless the applicant furnishes security in the amount fixed by the court, to indemnify the person wrongfully enjoined for the costs incurred and damages sustained — except where security is dispensed with by law.

FAQs

Common questions.

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

What is a Louisiana injunction bond? +
Security a court requires before it will issue a TRO or preliminary injunction. Under CCP art. 3610 the bond indemnifies the enjoined party for costs and damages if the order was wrongfully obtained. The court fixes the amount.
How much does it cost? +
There's no flat rate. Injunction bonds are underwritten — premium is a percentage of the court-fixed penal sum that depends on the bond size and the applicant's financials. We size and quote the exact figure before you commit.
Who sets the bond amount? +
The court does. CCP art. 3610 directs the court to fix security in an amount sufficient to indemnify the enjoined party for costs and damages from a wrongful order. We then underwrite and quote the premium on that amount.
Is a bond always required? +
Not always. Security is dispensed with by law in certain cases — for example, protective orders involving domestic abuse, dating violence, stalking, or sexual assault, and certain orders removing a person from property they have no legal interest in. Tell us the matter and we will confirm.
How fast can I get it? +
A specialist typically returns a quote within one business day of a complete application. Once you approve the terms and post any required collateral, we issue the executed bond on the court’s form so the order can take effect.
