bail bond agreement
if i am a signer as an indemnitor on a bail bond, is my only responsiblity that the defendant appears in court? and if he does appear do i still have financial obligation? I signed the promissory note & the indemnity agreement for my brother 3 1/2 yrs ago now I’m being harrassed by a collection agency. It was my understanding when I signed that I would only be responsible for him to show up in court, and if he did I would have no further responsibility.

    He apparently didn’t show, otherwise the bail would not have been forfeited, leaving you on the hook for your contract with the bondsman. Consult counsel to se what you can do. You can sue the relative that skipped, and may have defenses to the contract. Feel free to contact me if interested in getting legal help.
