Surety Bonds are required for every elected and appointed official throughout the United States – including, but not limited to State School Boards, Districts, Mayors, Sheriffs, and County Officials.
This case was pursued in Illinois.
Health officials may be subject to the surety bond system as well. Anyone who oversteps the bounds of their office are potentially liable.
