How Does a Montana Process Server Bond Work? 

A Montana process server bond is a legally-binding contract between three parties:

  1. Principal: The process server purchasing the bond
  2. Obligee: The Montana Private Security Program requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

You, as the principal, promise to uphold Montana Code Title 25, Chapter 3.

If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will validate and pay claims up to the full bond amount. However, you are ultimately responsible for refunding the surety.
