When you post bond you ARE guaranteeing that the person will make their court date.
If they don't show up, you owe the bail bondsman $2500.00.
The only way to protect yourself is to make sure the person shows up in court.

the respond is certain. Judges are loopy sufficient to permit a 2d via fact jails are overcrowded. issues are going to be diverse even with the incontrovertible fact that. right this is what to anticipate: The bond can be larger. The courtroom and/or bondsman will impose extra circumstances like verify ins and digital monitoring. The bondsman will require issues like extra indemnitors, funds collateral and written sources mortgages. Substance abuse counseling and sorting out would nicely be imposed. Strict trip regulations will word. extremely some circumstances would bring about different circumstances and regulations while permitting a defendant to be released on bail after failing to look however the above are the main trouble-free.

You can't; the intent of charging bail is to ensure that the person will make the court date. You will have to pay $2500 minus the $250 you already paid. Sorry.

You can file a motion with the court to withdraw the security you posted to gain the defendant's release. If the court grants your motion, you are no longer on the hook if the defendant skips. In the event the court grants you such relief, the defendant will have to come up with alternate bail or be incarcerated pending disposition of the case.

You can't protect yourself. You should only bail someone out that you really trust.
