How it works

Built for the seizure order.

Claim and delivery moves fast once the court approves it, and the property won’t be delivered until the bond is posted. Here is the whole process:

TODAY · 10 MINUTES

Send us the file

Apply online with the property described, its fair market value, the parties, and the court. The value drives the penal sum — one and one-half times fair market value.

WITHIN 1 BUSINESS DAY

A surety specialist underwrites it

A specialist reviews the file, your credit and finances, and any collateral, then returns a quote. The amount follows the statute — underwriting decides approval and collateral.

ON APPROVAL

Execute & file

Once you bind, we issue the executed bond approved by the court with the power of attorney attached, ready to file so the sheriff can deliver the property to you.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What a replevin bond secures

Replevin — in Minnesota, claim and delivery — lets you recover specific personal property a defendant is holding before the lawsuit is finished. To get the property early, you post a bond.

The replevin bond protects the party the property is taken from: if you ultimately lose, it guarantees the property is returned or its value and any damages are paid. That is why the penal sum is keyed to the value of the goods rather than a flat figure.

Because the surety stands behind that value, the bond is underwritten on your credit and finances, and high-value property can require collateral. We tell you what a given file needs before you commit.

Minnesota StatuteMinn. Stat. § 565.25 governs the bonds in a claim-and-delivery (replevin) action. After the court orders seizure, the claimant obtains delivery by filing a bond in an amount equal to one and one-half times the fair market value of the property seized, conditioned for return of the property and payment of damages if the claimant does not prevail. A respondent may retain or regain possession by filing an approved bond in the amount of one and one-quarter times the property’s fair market value or one and one-half times the claimant’s claim, whichever is less.

FAQs

Common questions.

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

What is a Minnesota replevin or claim-and-delivery bond? +
It is the bond you post to recover personal property before judgment. Minnesota calls the action claim and delivery; under Minn. Stat. § 565.25 the claimant files a bond to obtain delivery of the seized property, conditioned to return it or pay its value and damages if the claimant does not prevail.
How much does it cost? +
It is underwritten, not flat-rated. The penal sum is set by statute and the property value — one and one-half times the fair market value of the property seized under § 565.25. A surety specialist reviews your file and any collateral and returns a premium quote, usually within one business day.
How is the penal sum calculated? +
Under Minn. Stat. § 565.25, a claimant seeking delivery posts a bond of one and one-half times the fair market value of the property seized. A respondent who wants to keep or recover the property posts a bond of one and one-quarter times the property’s value or one and one-half times the claimant’s claim, whichever is less.
Will I need to post collateral? +
Sometimes, especially for high-value property. Because the surety guarantees the value of the goods and any damages, a large bond can require collateral such as cash, a letter of credit, or pledged assets. We tell you what your 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 is ready for the court to approve so the sheriff can deliver the property.
