On August 4, 2005 a friend of mine had court in Rockdale county at 8 a.m. She overslept and was 20 minutes late, thus her bond was revoked and she was held in content of court.
I find out that night, and take off early from work the next day to bail her out. However, since I am only 20 at the time, I find out I'm not old enough to bail anyone out, nor would they with this case since bond had been previously revoked. So, that evening, I make a huge mistake and post $4,750 of my own money to bond her out
We butt heads because I want her to stay with her family until her court date, and she wants to keep living her lifestyle. So, within two weeks of me posting her full bond, we stop speaking after I unsucessfully try to take her in as a flight risk (that was fun, let me tell you). I do know that she made it to court on time, thanks to her mother. My question is, what do I have to do to get my bond money back? I know part of it is kept for her court fees and fines, but I figure I still stand to get a couple grand back. What steps do I take now with Rockdale county to get my money back? Who would I call, and what would be the most assertive method to salvage anything left?
