What it is and who needs it.
What the sheriff's indemnity bond actually covers
When a creditor or judgment holder asks a Wisconsin sheriff to levy on, attach, or seize property under a writ, the sheriff is personally exposed if it turns out the property belonged to someone else. To protect against that, the sheriff can require the party directing the levy to post an indemnity bond before acting.
The bond runs to the sheriff (the obligee) and stands behind your direction to seize: if a third party proves the property was theirs and sues the sheriff for wrongful seizure, the sheriff's loss is covered by the bond rather than coming out of the sheriff's own pocket. You — the party who directed the levy — are the principal.
The amount is set by the sheriff or the court, generally tied to the value of the property being taken. This is a court/indemnity bond, not a license bond: if the surety pays a wrongful-seizure claim, you repay the surety. Enter the figure you were given and we issue it at a flat 3%.
