County officers required to execute bonds; amount; sureties; penalty.| (a) All county officers, except county attorneys, before assuming the duties of their office and within twenty (20) days after the commencement of the term for which they were elected or appointed, shall take, subscribe and file the oath of office, and execute and file their official bonds to the state of Wyoming to insure the honest and faithful performance of their duties, in the penal amounts specified and according to the following provisions:  (i) County assessor: a bond approved by the board of county commissioners of five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) with at least two (2) sureties who are residents of the county or of a responsible surety company;  (ii) Repealed by Laws 1981, Sp. Sess., ch. 22, § 2.  (iii) County clerk: a bond filed with the county treasurer of not less than four thousand dollars ($4,000.00) with at least two (2) sureties;  (iv) County commissioners: a bond approved by the clerk of the district court of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00);  (v) County sheriff: a bond approved by the board of county commissioners of four thousand dollars ($4,000.00) with sufficient surety;  (vi) County surveyor: a bond of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) with sufficient sureties;  (vii) County treasurer: a bond in an amount prescribed by the board of county commissioners and filed in the office of the county clerk with an approved corporate surety company or at least three (3) sufficient sureties. If for any reason the bond has not been approved by the board of county commissioners, the bond may be approved by the county clerk, but final approval must be given by the board of county commissioners at their next regular meeting. If the board of county commissioners has not prescribed the amount of the bond it shall be not less than the total amount of taxes levied for the year;  (viii) County coroner: a bond as specified in W.S. 7-4-101.  (b) The board of county commissioners may require any county officer who receives county revenue to execute a bond in the penal amount of one and one-fourth (1 1/4) times the amount of revenue received.  (c) Deputy county assessors appointed as provided by W.S. 18-3-107(e) shall execute a bond with the county in the penal sum of two thousand dollars ($2,000.00) conditioned that they will faithfully and impartially observe the laws relating to the listing, assessing and valuing of all property.  (d) Whenever the board of county commissioners requires any county officer to execute a new or additional bond, the county clerk shall immediately give personal notice to that officer. If the bond is not executed within twenty (20) days after receipt of the notice, the board of county commissioners shall declare the office vacant and shall appoint a qualified person to hold the office as provided by W.S. 22-18-111.  (e) Sureties of official bonds as provided in this section shall be residents of the state and have a net worth of twice the amount secured by the bond and each shall sign an affidavit, which will be endorsed on the bond, of his net worth. Any surety who willfully and corruptly makes a false affidavit as to his qualifications is guilty of false swearing.  (f) If a surety ceases to possess the required qualifications, the board of county commissioners shall require the county officer giving the bond to execute a new one.  (g) Any action to recover on the bonds provided in this section shall be in the name of the people.
