ANNOTATION
There can be no recovery upon an official bond outside its terms. Tate v. People ex rel. Dewees, 6 Colo. App. 202, 40 P. 471 (1895).
And it is the second condition of the statutory bond which applies to money collected by the sheriff, and it is the second condition of the bond in suit which undertakes to direct the disposition to be made by the sheriff of money received by him as an officer, and it requires him to turn the money over, not to the party entitled to it, but to his successors in office, so that the condition was not broken by his failure to pay it to the judgment creditor. Tate v. People ex rel. Dewees, 6 Colo. App. 202, 40 P. 471 (1895).
