What Is a Civil Undertaking?

A civil undertaking is a legally binding commitment to comply with a court’s ruling. In many legal disputes, courts require a party to obtain a bond before taking specific actions, ensuring they can cover potential financial damages.

Courts typically require a civil undertaking in cases involving:

✔ Appeals of court decisions

✔ Requests for injunctions or asset seizures

✔ Financial guarantees in civil disputes

How Civil Undertakings Protect All Parties

These bonds protect individuals, businesses, and the court system by ensuring compliance with judicial decisions. They provide financial security, ensuring that if a party fails to uphold their obligation, the injured party can recover damages.
