You must complete either Form REG-4-A or Form REG-4-D to obtain a bond. You will not be issued a certificate of registration and cannot be legally registered to do business in Illinois until we receive your bond. How do I obtain a bond using Form REG-4-A?
A Bond Claim Must be filed within 180 days from the last date of furnishing work or materials on the job. Must be served in writing on the Secretary of Transportation, with copies to the prime contractor, subcontractor and the bonding company. May need to be followed up by a lawsuit.
For example, if the judge sets a $5,000.00 standard bail bond, you will remit to the court $500.00. If you plea to any of the charges, you will receive 90% of that deposit back, or $450.00.
Bond's Law: The work required to form particles from very large feed is proportional to the square root of the surface-to-volume ratio.
By securing a bond from a surety, you are demonstrating your willingness to assume responsibility for any legal/financial issues that might arise as a result of wrongdoing on your part. Another major difference between being insured and being bonded involves reimbursement.
