Federal Bankruptcy Rule 2010 allows the United States Trustee to implement a blanket bond for the panel of trustees. The use of the blanket bond eliminates the necessity for a trustee to furnish a separate bond in each case. However, the UST may require a bond in any case or a bond may be necessary in a case in which the trustee operates a business. A separate bond will be required in any case where the funds on hand exceed the blanket bond per case limit.

The trustee will docket this event and attach a copy of the bond, anytime an individual bond is required.
