BACKGROUND - PERSONAL SURETY
Surety Bonds are often required by private industry, municipalities, states and the federal government to ensure a principal abides by the governing rules and regulations. Each has their own specific surety bond form. The principal is required to provide the surety bond form.

A surety bond is a three party agreement and they are underwritten similar to a loan.

Obilgee: The entity that requires the Surety Bond (in this case the Lake County Auditor)
Principal: The entity or person applying for the Surety Bond (in this case the Township Trustees)
Surety Company: The entity that issues the Surety Bonds.
