No, but YOU can lose any collateral you put up, such as your car or house. Or you will have to pay the entire bond. If the person did not show up for court, only 3 things can help you:

  • Get the person to turn him /herself in voluntarily
  • Write to the bondsman, with a dated, signed letter, and ask to be taken off the bond. The bondsman will then catch the person and take the person to jail.
  • And turn the person in to the bondsman--- tell where the person is, who they live with/address, car make model year, phone numbers, and help the bondsman to find the person. This is in your best financial interest.
