Fiduciary Bonds vs. Judiciary Bonds

A fiduciary is an individual appointed by the court to be responsible for assets, for example, a person may be made responsible for a deceased relative’s estate. A fiduciary bond assures the court-appointed individual will act both ethically and responsibly in their role.

If they fail in their duties, the bond will protect those financially harmed by the fiduciary's actions.

A judiciary bond is a court bond designed to help limit the financial loss from a court ruling. The outcome of a court ruling is never guaranteed, and because of this, a judiciary bond is considered riskier than other types of court bonds.

Either the plaintiff or the defendant in a case may be required to obtain a judiciary bond, and the court will stipulate the type of bond required. One of the most commonly known judiciary bonds is bail bonds.
