When the person charged fails to appear at the hearing date the judge will issue a bench warrant for their arrest. Depending on the offense the police may actively seek the person or the person will be taken into custody when/if stopped by any law officer. If the person was released on bail by a bonding company, most such agencies employ agents (bounty hunters) who look for the individual and have the authority to take them into custody and return them to authorities.
