Hello,
You do not specify if is a bond posted for a criminal case or an immigration bond. If it is an immigration bond you may be able to get your money back if you:
1) Find the original receipt for the bond.2) Get the order showing the court's decision to ICE and get them to cancel the bond.3) Contact the bondsman where you posted bond. You should get your money back after a few months.
