THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO  PETITIONING CREDITOR'S BONDS By law, creditors have the right to file  a petition to force a delinquent debtor   into bankruptcy when the debtor is  reluctant to file a voluntary bankruptcy. Once a petition is filed, a court  can declare the debtor bankrupt   and appoint a trustee or receiver to  assume control of the debtor’s assets. The courts will then require a creditor  to obtain a Petitioning Creditor’s Bond. WHAT IS A PETITIONING CREDITOR’S BOND? This surety bond is used in certain bankruptcy  proceedings, which is required by the court when   a plaintiff is petitioning a defendant  to be declared as officially bankrupt. It guarantees that the debtor will  be compensated for any costs or fees   they might suffer as a result of the  seizure of their assets or properties   in case the court decides to  deny the petition for bankruptcy. In essence, it provides protection to  the debtor against any damages or loss. IS COLLATERAL NEEDED FOR THIS BOND? Generally speaking, Fiduciary bonds / Probate  bonds don't require collateral, but rather,   we are basing the decision  primarily on these 4 FACTORS;  1) Credit Score; 2) Financial Capacity of the fiduciary;  3) Experience; 4) Character. How much does a Petitioning Creditor’s Bond Cost? Like in all bonds, sureties or underwriters  that write Bonds for Petitioning Creditors   in Bankruptcy must conduct a thorough  background investigation of the applicants,   particularly focusing on the  creditor’s financial strength. An applicant with a good credit background and  significant net worth relative to the bond penalty   is assured to be issued this type  of bond without reservations. Here is an example of this bond in action: Carl owes a large amount of money to Derrick.  However, even after repeated requests by Derrick,   Carl refuses to pay his debt, saying he has  no money because he was laid off from work.   But Derrick knows Carl’s house is  fully paid for, and its value is   enough to cover the amount owed to him. Derrick decides to petition the court to   declare Carl legally bankrupt and to appoint  a trustee to take control of his house. Before   filing his petition, Derrick must first obtain  a Bond for Petitioning Creditors in Bankruptcy   (aka Petitioning Creditor’s Bond) to protect the  rights of Carl while the litigation is ongoing.  Carl can seek indemnification from the bond  in case he sustains any damages or loss if   the court decides he is not bankrupt  or if Derrick withdraws the petition.
