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 one hundred thousand dollars
($100,000.00) with a sufficient surety who is a resident 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           (ii)   Repealed by Laws 1981, Sp.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 one hundred thousand dollars
($100,000.00) with a sufficient surety;

          (iv) County commissioners: a bond approved by the
clerk of the district court of ten thousand dollars
($10,000.00);

          (v) County sheriff: a bond approved by the board of
county commissioners of one hundred thousand dollars
($100,000.00) with sufficient surety;

          (vi) County surveyor: a bond of ten thousand dollars
($10,000.00) with sufficient surety;

          (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.
