Court terms and conditions One of the conditions you must meet before a court grants your bail bond is an assurance that you will be living in your current address at least until your case is heard and determined. With such conditions, you will need the court's permission before leaving your state.
Provided that where such penalty is not paid and cannot be recovered in the manner aforesaid, the person so bound as surety shall be liable, by order of the Court ordering the recovery of the penalty, to imprisonment in civil jail for a term which may extend to six months.
Bond forfeiture is the enforcement of a guarantee. This can apply to any bond but the best example is the bail bond. Most commonly, bail bonds are forfeited when a defendant misses a court date. The bail bondsman or bondswoman must then pay the outstanding bail.
The Bond Forfeiture Division forfeits a criminal defendant's bond based on his/her failure to appear. There are five types of bonds: Commercial (Insurance Company/Bondsman), Cash, Property, Personal Surety and Release on Own Recognizance.
If the defendant shows up for their court date, the bondsman gets back the entire amount of the bail. The inmate won't get any money back since the 10% premium is payment for the bail bondsman's services. If the inmate fails to show up, all financial obligations to the bonds agency fall on the defendant.
