How do you get an immigration bail bond back?

If a person has skipped the country on an immigration bond, it is unlikely that it can be returned. It can generally only be returned if the person returns.


If a prisoner appears in court is some of the bond money returned?

That's a private business deal between you and your bail bondsman. If the judge releases you, without bond, you will owe only the amount the bail bondsman charged for his services.


When you post bail and turn yourself in 3 days later do you still have to pay the total bail amount?

Question is unclear. Did the questioner post their own bail or did they hire a bailbondsman? Why did they surrender themselves? If they posted their own cash bond, the bond should be returned (eventually) to them. If they employed a bailbondsman, they will owe them the fee for borrowing and using his bond money.


Is bail money returned when the accused gets dismissed?

it depends if you paid in full bail, or a percentage of the bail. If you go to court and your'e case is dismissed all your bond money will be returned if you paid in full. if you paid through a bondsman he will keep the percentage of the bail. Depending on what your bail is set at depends on what percentage the bondsman keeps. example you bond is $3000 you paid the jail that 3000. you would get that all back. but if you used a bondsman he would keep 300 of that 3000 which equals 10% Hope that helps

When is bail to be returned?

In most states a bail bond could be released in several ways. The most common way that a bond is released is post sentencing. Once the defendant is sentenced the judge will order the bond exonerated in open court. The other not so common ways are as follows: 1.) The bond could be released if the defendant is arrested on the case in the same county. 2.) The court increases the bond amount. 3.) The defendant is deceased. 4.) The bond agency files a motion to exonerate the bond. These avenues for a release of bond are not the only options but are the most common.

What happens to bond money if the defendant is found guilty?

In any case at all, if the defendent returns on the appointed date, the bail/bond money is returned. It doesn't matter whether he/she is found guilty or not, as the bail money is only a deposit, meant to ensure that the defendent will return to court.


What happens to the bail bondsman when a person jumps bail?

The bail bond company (bail bondsman) will have to pay the amount of the bond. Bail bond companies don't actually post the full amount of the bond with the court officials. Instead, they agree to pay the bond amount if the defendant "jumps" bond and does not appear for trial or other court hearings. Once the defendant is returned to the jurisdiction of the court, some or all of the money is refunded to the bail bond company. In some jurisdictions, the bail bond company is given a reasonable amount of time to apprehend the defendant before being required to pay the bond amount. Added: In Texas, If a bondsman has reason to suspect that the defendant is not following conditions of bond, he will often file an affidavit to go off the bond, thereby resulting in a warrant for the defendant's arrest, and reduced liability on the part of the bondsman. I believe bond works differently in other states, however, because in other states bondsmen are known to actually facilitate arrests of their clients in order to get their money back. Regardless, however, if a felony defendant leaves the state and fails to report as required, it WILL result in a warrant, and once that individual is arrested in the other state, he/she will likely be returned to the state that issued the warrant.


If a bail bond is exonerated do you get a refund from the bail company where you posted bail with?

Exoneration of a bail bond simply means that the defendant has been adjudicated and the bail liability has been released from the bail bond agent.When a bail bond is posted and a fee is charged by the bail agent that fee is non-refundable no matter if the charges are never filed, the defendant gets parole revoked and put back into custody, or the defendant is adjudicated.
