What I understand from just googling it is that a probate bond is a means of ensuring that the executor or administrator of an estate will administer the estate properly and not make off with the dead person's money. It ensures this by making the executor or administrator post a bond which I think is like getting insurance.
The executor/administrator (let's say "Dude") pays an "insurance premium" to the bond company ("insurance company,"), and if Dude messes up the estate, the bond company will then have to pay whoever was hurt, but can then come after Dude's butt to make him or her reimburse the bond company.
Also, I think Dude takes the insurance premium out of the estate itself, so that he/she doesn't have to pay it out of pocket.
Lastly, not everyone can be Dude, because a lot of people are rejected for having bad credit. That is to say, the bond company doesn't trust them not to steal stuff from the estate because their credit is so bad, and so won't insure them. This part doesn't make sense to me, because there's a big difference between being poor and being a crook, but hey, I didn't make the rules.
