An appeal or supersedeas bond secures the appellee while a Texas judgment is stayed pending appeal.
The surety bond guarantees that the principal will perform the duties required under Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure (confirm order) up to the penal sum.
A claim may arise if the principal fails to comply with the bonded Texas obligation or causes covered loss to the obligee or protected parties.
If a claim is valid, the surety may pay up to the bond penalty according to the bond terms; the principal remains liable to reimburse the surety.
Amount, premium, term, and the authority that requires this filing.
Appellants ordered to post a stay bond by a Texas trial or appellate court.
Size the bond to the court order and Texas appellate rules; use approved surety form language.
Share your license type, court order, or obligee form and the exact penal sum required by Texas courts.
We review credit and filing details, then quote premium options through licensed surety markets.
Once approved, we issue the bond for delivery to Appellee - clerk as ordered by the Texas court or for your Texas filing package.
The amount is Court-ordered amount (often judgment plus costs - interest factors), as set under Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure (confirm order) and confirmed with Texas courts.
The obligee is typically Appellee - clerk as ordered by the Texas court. Always match the exact name on the Texas form.
Many Texas filings can be underwritten the same day when documents and credit are complete; complex amounts may take longer.
Not always. Premium and collateral options vary by credit and bond size — ask for markets that still write the risk.
Most bonds renew on the term shown (1 Year). Keep continuity so your Texas license or filing does not lapse.
