Before a Missouri court issues a TRO or preliminary injunction, the moving party usually has to post a bond.
Under Rule 92.02, it protects the enjoined party if the injunction is later dissolved.
The judge sets the amount — so the bond is underwritten, not flat-rated.
Tell us the amount the court named and a specialist quotes it, usually within one business day.
















Courts frequently condition a TRO or preliminary injunction on a bond before it takes effect. Here is the whole path:
Court, case number, the amount the judge named (or expects), and who the moving party is. That is the whole application.
When a TRO is pending we move fast. A specialist reviews the amount and the matter; larger figures may involve a soft credit check or collateral, and we tell you what up front.
You receive a firm quote and the executed bond on the court’s form, ready to file with the clerk so the order can take effect.
An injunction or TRO is a powerful order — it stops someone from doing something before the case is decided. If the court later finds the order should never have issued, the enjoined party may have been harmed in the meantime. The injunction bond is how that harm gets paid.
Under Missouri Rule 92.02, no injunction or temporary restraining order issues without security, except in suits the state brings on its own behalf. The bond is conditioned on the movant abiding by the court’s decision and paying the damages and costs adjudged if the order is dissolved.
The judge fixes the amount the court deems sufficient to cover the enjoined party’s potential damages. Because that figure varies case by case, the bond is individually underwritten — there is no flat rate and no instant issue.
Court, case number, the figure the court set (or expects to set), and the moving party. A specialist underwrites it and returns a quote — usually within one business day, faster when a TRO is pending.
