A Tennessee Civil Cost Bond is a type of surety bond required by the state of Tennessee in certain circumstances. It is used to guarantee that a party in a civil case will pay any court-ordered costs, fines, or judgments. It is also known as a “court cost bond” or “cost surety bond”. The two main types of Tennessee Civil Cost Bonds are an appearance bond and an appeal bond. An appearance bond guarantees that the party will appear in court when required to do so. An appeal bond guarantees that the party will pay any court-ordered costs or judgments if they lose an appeal. Both types of bonds are typically issued by a surety company and backed by collateral.
