Fta?

Asked on May 06th, 2019 on Criminal Law - Colorado
More details to this question:
First, there's a small bond fee of $1250.00 put down from a cosigner for a PR Bond to release alleged offender (a.o.) until court date/time already established 2 wks out. Then, the a.o. doesn't make the set date/time because he/she overslept. A summons was issued for another set date/time, not a warrant. What will happen at the new date/time To the cosigner and offender?

What happens can depend on the Court it is in, but I would expect that so long as the alleged offender actually shows up on the new court date, the bond will be reinstated and the case will move forward.  (NOTE: A PR bond does not require the posting of any money so this must be a cash bond). If the alleged offender does not show up, then the person who secured the bond (i.e. paid the $1250) will get a notice that they have to show up in court and the money could be forfeited. However, if they show up with the alleged offender, the bond likely would not be forfeited.
