In general, an exoneration occurs when a person who has been convicted of a crime is officially cleared after new evidence of innocence becomes available.
Consequences of a Revoked Bail Bond A warrant will likely be issued for your arrest, and you may be taken into custody until your case is resolved. If you fail to appear in court, the bail amount may be forfeited, and you or your cosigner may be responsible for paying the total amount to the bail bond company.
Massachusetts does not have bail bondsmen, so whoever is going to post the bail will have to come up with the entire amount. Sometimes this takes a matter of days, or longer, during which the defendant will be held at the county jail.
Discharging bond is a delivery bond that permits a defendant to regain possession of the attached property. It also releases the property from the lien of attachment. It is also termed as dissolution bond.
To request a continuance regarding your DALA case, you (the party seeking the continuance or "the moving party") should submit a written request (a "motion") at least seven (7) days before the event. You can send your request by mail, fax, or e-mail.
The defendant can post their own bail or ask a family member or friend to post it. If the defendant uses a bond company, the company may require the defendant to have a co-signer (someone who will help the company find the defendant should they fail to appear).
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.
