Surety Bond; Purpose and Amount

A Missouri attachment order allows you as Plaintiff (or, for legal counsel, your client) to seize the disputed property of the Defendant, before a final decision is given in the underlying case.

For this reason, this surety bond is sometimes referred to as a ‘prejudgment attachment’ bond.  

In order for the attachment order to take effect, according to Missouri law, Rule 85.08, as amended, a surety bond is required.  

While required of the Plaintiff, its benefit is a financial guarantee for the Defendant and the sheriff.  Specifically, the bond outlines four purposes of your bond requirement.  

They are as follows: 

• A guarantee that the case will move forward without unnecessary delays;
• That in case that the court subsequently decides that the attachment order was wrongly issued, a timely refund of any money owed to the Defendant;
• That you will pay all damages caused to the Defendant by any wrongfully issued attachment bond;
• That you will pay all and any damages which may occur to the Sheriff, who is following your instructions.

According to the same statute, the amount of the surety bond will be no more than twice the value of the claimed items to be attached.
