Maine injunction & TRO bonds.
Post the security the court ordered.
When you ask a Maine court to enjoin someone, the rule says no restraining order or preliminary injunction issues except on the giving of security.
This bond protects the enjoined party for the costs and damages they suffer
if it turns out they were wrongfully restrained.
The court sets the amount — we underwrite it and return a quote, usually within one business day.

Built for the hearing date.
A judge can condition the injunction on security being posted promptly. Here is the whole process:
Tell us the order
Send the amount of security the court set (or expects), the parties, and the court. If the amount is still being argued, give us the range — we can move the moment the judge fixes it.
A specialist underwrites & quotes
A surety specialist reviews the matter and returns a quote with any collateral or financial requirement. Because the bond backs the other side’s potential damages, larger amounts may be collateralized.
Execute & file
We issue the bond on the form your court accepts, with the surety’s power of attorney attached, so it can be filed and the injunction or restraining order can take effect.
What it is and who needs it.
Why the court wants security first
A preliminary injunction or temporary restraining order is a powerful, pre-trial remedy: it stops the other party from doing something before anyone has won on the merits.
To balance that, Maine requires the party seeking the injunction to post security. The bond stands behind the costs and damages the enjoined party suffers if the court later decides the injunction should never have issued.
Under M.R. Civ. P. 65(c), no restraining order or preliminary injunction issues except upon the giving of security by the applicant, in such sum as the court deems proper — though for good cause shown and recited in the order, the court may waive it. We size and underwrite to whatever the judge orders.
