FAQ

Before giving us a call, make sure you have the following information handy: The full name of the person who was arrested. Where is the person being held for custody (you should include the name of jail, city, and county) The person's booking number.

Types of Bounty Hunters ing to Bounty Hunters HQ, there are three main types of people that make up the ranks of bounty hunters: Fugitive Recovery Agents (FRAs), Fugitive Investigators (FIs) and bail enforcement agents (BEAs).

Agencies send teams to arrest individuals and return them to court or jail. However, California limits bail bond arrest powers. For instance, bail agents cannot use excessive force to arrest you. Bounty hunters must apply “reasonable force” instead, which means it should be proportionate.

While bail enforcement agents are authorized to carry firearms and make arrests, they do not have the same authority as police officers. They do not have the power to investigate crimes, enforce traffic laws, or carry out other law enforcement duties.

Like officers, bounty hunters should keep their license with them at all times while pursuing a fugitive. However, they are not allowed to pose as officers or even wear badges that may make them look like officers. Except in rare cases, a bounty hunter cannot forcibly enter your place of residence.

Authority of Bail Bond Agents So, what authority do bail bond agents have? Bail bond agents can carry firearms (like regular citizens) and make arrests in California. However, they do not have the same power as police officers to investigate crimes, enforce traffic laws, or cordon off specific areas.

Bail enforcement agents have the authority to arrest fugitives who have skipped bail but their jurisdiction is limited. They must operate within the legal framework of the state where the bail was granted and where they are attempting to apprehend the fugitive.
