There was a 250M bond posted, IIRC - does this mean his guarantors lose the money?

- throw03172019 3y agoWould they only lose the money if he fled and didn’t appear for court?
- drexlspivey 3y agonot if he shows up
- ilc 3y agoI don't think so. He hasn't fled. The 250M is to make sure his butt shows up.
- dragonwriter 3y agoI may be wrong, but I believe that bail forfeiture would be a separate order from revocation/remand, with its own hearing. The summary of the revocation order (the full document isn't up yet on CourtListener) refers to remand to custody but not forfeiture. I think it can occur for both failure to appear and other violations of bail conditions, but I don’t know, on practice, how common forfeiture is for violations of other bail conditions.
- pseingatl 3y agoThey only guaranteed the personal surety bond. No one put up any cash. There was no corporate surety bond imposed as a condition of release.
