Loni Lynn Richardson

Source note: FMCSA's authority row says Active, while its latest logged history action is “Voluntarily suspended” on October 8, 2026. These source statements disagree; the history does not resolve current authority. Check the official records.

Source note: The selected bond filing names Merchants Bonding Company (Mutual); other financial-filing rows name Merchants Bonding Company ( Mutual). The files do not explain these provider differences. A shared effective date does not establish one consistent policy or insurer; each source row is retained separately.

As of Oct 21, 2026, Loni Lynn Richardson in Denison, Texas has broker authority status “Active”, with an unresolved disagreement between the authority row and its latest logged stop, with 1 suspension or revocation on record.
