This may be a previously unknown piece of information to you: our public officials--from judges to governors (maybe even the federal ones?) must be bonded!
Surety bonds provide financial guarantees that bondholders such as public officials, companies, contractors, or unions will uphold their contracts according to mutual terms.
Surety bonds protect WE THE PEOPLE from fraud and malpractice. When a bondholder breaks a bond’s terms, the harmed party can make a claim on the bond to recover losses.
There is a process to this:
- Send a request letter to the official(s)
- Serve a letter of intent (notice)
- Filing a claim
