Full text
(1) An authorized surety insurer having policyholder surplus of not less than $1 million shall, upon proper proof thereof and production of evidence of solvency, be acceptable as surety upon the bonds of all city, county, and state officers.
(2) The various officers of this state whose duty it is to approve the sureties upon bonds may accept such an insurer as one of the sureties, or as the only surety, upon such bond as the solvency of the insurer may warrant.
(3) No insurer shall be relieved of its liability upon any bond by reason of the fact that the books and accounts of the principal have been examined and approved as correct by the proper authorities when in fact there has been a breach of the bond and a loss accruing from the breach.
