“Conn.Gen.Stat. Section 6-30 provides: No person shall enter upon the duties of sheriff until he executes a bond of ten thousand dollars, to the acceptance of the Governor, payable to the state, conditioned that he will faithfully discharge the duties of his office, including his duties when serving as deputy of another sheriff under the provisions of section 6-38, and answer all damages which any person may sustain by his unfaithfulness, malfeasance, wrongdoing, misfeasance or neglect; and the Governor may, at any time, demand of any sheriff a new bond and, on neglect or refusal to give it, such sheriff shall be considered to have resigned his office, provided no such sheriff shall collect tax warrants for the state or any municipality until such sheriff executes a bond of one hundred thousand dollars. Each sheriff shall receive a commission and his bond shall be lodged with the Secretary and recorded in the records of the state and a copy thereof, certified by the Secretary, shall be evidence of its execution.
