RE:
Sheriffs Qualifying (Public Officials) Bond (30.01 - 30.02)
Dear Ms. Snider:
Per your request see below a quotation for the Sheriffs Qualifying Bond. This bond covers the
Sheriff for the faithful performance of the duties of his or her office. The bond is payable to the
State of Florida in the event the Sheriff does not faithfully perform the duties of his office. Prior
to July 1998, this bond was required of all Sheriffs by Florida Statute. However, in recent years
the bond is discretionary with the County and some Board of County Commissioners require a
Sheriffs Qualifying Bond for each term of office. However, claims filed against these bonds are
almost non-existent and our experience is that most who would complain about a Sheriffs
actions pursue a civil claim that would be covered by the Florida Sheriffs Self-Insurance Fund.
Given the broad coverage provided through the Florida Sheriffs Self-Insurance Fund (FSSIF)
and the other self-insurance programs administered through Hunt Insurance Group, LJ .C. it is my
opinion that the Sheriffs loss exposures are adequately covered and there is no longer a need for
this bond by your office.
Quotation: 4 year term bond @ $15,000 limit = $343.40
As always. let us know if you have any questions. Please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
Hunt Insurance Group, LLC/Willis HRH
