• Attachment

Real Property is Attached/Taken

Attachment is a provisional remedy by which the property of the adverse party in a case is taken into custody of the law, or “attached”, as security for the satisfaction of any judgment which the plaintiff or any proper party may obtain. An attachment bond shall be posted by the plaintiff.

The attachment bond seeks to guarantee the payment of all costs which may be adjudged to the adverse party and all damages which he may sustain by reason of the attachment if the court shall finally adjudge that the plaintiff was not entitled to such provisional remedy.

• Counter Attachment

A counter attachment bond shall be executed by the defendant if he wishes to discharge or stop the attachment filed by the plaintiff.

• Heir's Bond

The term “heir” includes all persons, whether relatives or not, who succeed or inherit from a deceased person either by will or under the laws of intestate succession.

The heir’s bonds shall secure them from any possible heirs’ or creditors’ claims on the properties of the deceased which they are going to inherit.

• Injuction

A preliminary injunction is an order granted by the court at any stage of an action prior to final judgment, requiring a person to refrain from doing a particular act. The plaintiff will be the one to post an injunction bond. The injunction bond shall answer for all damages which the party enjoined by
the order of injunction may sustain by reason of the issuance thereof if the court finally decides that the plaintiff was not entitled thereto.

• Counter Injuction

The defendant may refuse the injunction upon showing that the issuance of the injunction bond would cause great damage to him, while the plaintiff can fully be compensated for the damages he has suffered.

A counter bond shall be posted by the defendant to guarantee the payment of all damages which the plaintiff may suffer if the injunction is refused or lifted, and to protect the rights of the plaintiff in the event that the latter is eventually found to be entitled to the relief demanded.

• Replevin

Replevin is an action whereby the owner or person is entitled to the repossession of goods or chattels from one who has wrongfully detained or taken it. The plaintiff will post a replevin bond.

A replevin bond is executed to indemnify the person from whose custody the property was taken for such damages as he may sustain.

• Counter Replevin

The defendant may cause the return of the property to him by filing with the court a counter replevin bond.

• Supersedeas

The supersedeas bond is posted by the prevailing party in a case in an execution pending appeal. The bond assures that if the judgment rendered in favor of the prevailing party is reversed by the appellate court, the bond shall answer for the damages suffered by the appellant by the reason of the advanced execution of the judgment of the lower court.

• Bail Bond

In order to avoid the arrest of an accused who is the subject of a Warrant of Arrest, a bail bond shall be posted in order to secure his temporary liberty; provided that he will attend to the processes of the court in the trial of his case until the promulgation of judgment.
