How it works

Built to get the property moving.

In an Oregon claim-and-delivery action the bond is the gating step — it lets the sheriff take the property while the case proceeds. Here is the whole process:

WITHIN 1 BUSINESS DAY

A surety specialist underwrites it

A specialist reviews the file, your financials, and any collateral, then returns a quote. The penal sum is fixed by the court — underwriting decides approval and collateral.

Once you bind, we issue the executed bond on the court’s required form with the power of attorney attached, ready to file with the clerk so the sheriff can take the property.

About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

Why claim and delivery needs a bond

Claim and delivery (Oregon’s replevin remedy) 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, Oregon requires the plaintiff to post a bond that protects the defendant if the seizure turns out wrong. The bond is conditioned to pay the defendant’s costs and any damages from a wrongful or unsupported taking.

Unlike a flat double-value rule, Oregon sets the amount by the court’s order: the bond runs in an amount fixed by the court, and the court can require additional security if the defendant shows the potential damages exceed it. Because the amount tracks the property and the court’s order, the surety underwrites the file and may require collateral on a large penal sum.

Oregon RuleORCP 85 governs claim and delivery. Before property is taken by the sheriff, ORCP 82 A requires the plaintiff to file a surety bond or irrevocable letter of credit in an amount fixed by the court, conditioned that the plaintiff will pay all costs adjudged to the defendant and all damages the defendant may sustain by reason of the taking if it is wrongful or without sufficient cause, not exceeding the sum specified. On the defendant’s motion showing potential costs or damages exceed the bond, the court may require additional security.

FAQs

Common questions.

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

What is an Oregon replevin or claim-and-delivery bond? +
It is the security a plaintiff posts to take personal property before judgment in a claim-and-delivery action — Oregon’s replevin remedy. Under ORCP 85 and ORCP 82 A, the bond runs in an amount fixed by the court, conditioned to pay the defendant’s costs and any damages if the taking is wrongful or without sufficient cause.
How much does it cost? +
It is underwritten, not flat-rated. The penal sum is fixed by the court, sized to the property and the defendant’s potential damages. A surety specialist reviews your file and any collateral and returns a premium quote, usually within one business day.
Is the bond double the value of the property? +
Not in Oregon. The double-value figure people remember comes from attachment under ORCP 84. For claim and delivery under ORCP 85, the bond is in an amount fixed by the court, sized to cover the defendant’s costs and damages from a wrongful taking. We size and underwrite to the court’s order.
Can the court increase the bond later? +
Yes. On the defendant’s motion showing that potential costs or damages exceed the bond, the court may require the plaintiff to give additional security. We can adjust the penal sum and re-quote if the court raises the required amount.
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 issues on the court’s form, ready to file so the sheriff can take the property.
