| Before receiving a commission, every person appointed chief |
deputy under section 383, or appointed a deputy under section |
381, shall give bond to the Treasurer of State with at least 3 |
sufficient sureties, or with the bond of a surety company |
authorized to do business in this State as surety, in the sum |
required by the county commissioners of that county, conditioned |
for the faithful performance of the duties of that office. The |
bond of the chief deputy must be filed and approved in the same |
manner as is required for the bond of a sheriff under section |
372, subsection 2, and all of that subsection applies to these |
bonds. The county may furnish a bond for all full-time and part- |
time deputies that complies with this section. That bond must be |
recorded in the county records and delivered to the State Auditor |
to be filed. Surety and fidelity insurance coverage provided by |
a public sector self-funded risk pool organized pursuant to |
section 2253 in a sum equal to or exceeding the sum required by |
this section is deemed to comply with the requirements of this |
section. |
