FAQ
In California, the law allows co-signers to take their name off your bond and withdraw from the bail bond agreement. Unfortunately, this action can have severe consequences, which we discuss below. Co-signers may take their name off your bond for various reasons.
The judge is able to revoke your bail bond if they have sufficient evidence to believe you are at risk of failing to appear for your court date; likely to cause more problems out of jail than inside; and if you get arrested during your bail time.
In California, if you are a co-signer and you wish to revoke a bail bond, you will need to contact the bail bond agency and explain the situation. You will need to liaise with the bail bond company and ensure that the relevant courts are aware of the changes to make the decision official.
You don't have the independent authority to revoke or take your name off of a bond. If there is a valid reason, such as the defendant's noncompliance with release conditions, you can inform the bond company. The bond company can request that the court revoke the bond and return the person to jail.
A bail bond is exonerated when the legal process/trial has finished. It does not matter whether the defendant is found guilty/innocent or if the case has been dismissed. At this point, the bail bond is discharged. However, any unpaid premium, fees or other amounts charged by the bail service provider are still owed.
Typically, a cosigner can withdraw from a bail bond by demonstrating to the court or bail bond company that they no longer wish to be responsible. This process may involve legal proceedings and requires cooperation from the bail bond company and sometimes the defendant.
Contact the Bail Bond Company: Inform the bail bond company of your intention to remove your name from the bond. They will provide you with the necessary steps and paperwork required for the process. Notify the Court: In some cases, you may need to file a motion with the court to remove your name from the bail bond.
Voluntary Bond Revocation – Sometimes, the person who posted the bail (often a family member or friend) may choose to revoke the bond voluntarily. This usually happens if the defendant is not adhering to the conditions of their release or if the person posting bail feels that the defendant is a flight risk.
You'll need to check in with your bail bond agency to check that you meet certain criteria to revoke your signature. After you have done that, your agency will advise you on the required paperwork through their contract management software and what evidence you need to give in order to be released from your agreement.
You can withdrawl your agreement by calling the bondsman and telling them that you no longer want to be on the bond as you feel the ``criminal'' will not show up to court. You can sign off of the bail but they may arrest your friend.
