How Does a Nebraska Ballot Question Committee Bond Work?
A ballot question committee bond creates a legal contract between these three parties:
- Principal: You, the ballot question committee filing the bond
- Obligee: The Nebraska Accountability and Disclosure Commission requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding the provisions of Nebraska Revised Statute 49-1461.01.
If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you must ultimately refund the surety.
