Built to get the writ moving.
A writ of replevin can issue quickly once the affidavit and bond are filed, so the bond is usually the gating step. Here is the whole process:
Send us the file
Apply online with the affidavit, a description of the property, and its value. That value drives the penal sum the statute requires.
A surety specialist underwrites it
A specialist reviews the affidavit, your financials, and any collateral, then returns a quote. The penal sum is set by the statute and the property value — underwriting decides approval and collateral.
Execute & file
Once you bind, we issue the executed bond on the court’s required form with the power of attorney attached, ready to post so the officer can serve the writ.
What it is and who needs it.
Why replevin needs a double bond
Replevin (claim-and-delivery) lets you recover specific personal property — a vehicle, equipment, inventory — that someone is wrongfully holding, before the lawsuit ends.
Because the property changes hands before a judge decides who is right, New Mexico requires the plaintiff to file an affidavit and post a bond that protects the defendant if the seizure turns out to be wrong. That is why § 42-8-6 sets the penal sum at double the value of the property.
If the plaintiff loses, § 42-8-11 lets the court enter judgment against the plaintiff and the sureties for the value of the property plus damages, at the defendant’s option. Because the amount tracks the property, the surety underwrites the file and may require collateral on a large penal sum.
