Terms Used In Maine Revised Statutes Title 14 Sec. 707
- Obligation: An order placed, contract awarded, service received, or similar transaction during a given period that will require payments during the same or a future period.
Sheriffs and their deputies have the same authority and their deputies are under the same obligation to serve, execute and return all processes in their hands, when for any cause they cease to hold such office, as before. Official neglects or misdoings of a deputy after his principal is out of office are a breach of such sheriff’s bond.
