Bail Bond Question?

Mike S asked:


I live in the state of FL- A friend was arrested a few months back- His bond was 10 grand- His parents put up 5 grand, and he found a bail bondsman who would pay the remainder if I signed for him- Long story short- I provided my signature- he set up a payment plan with them…something like he would pay 50 per week until the 500 was paid off- The Lady working at the Bail Bond dive only asked me for my i.d. and how long I have lived in Fl…..I signed, he was out- His charges were dropped a weeks later and he moved out of town- The Bail Bonds dive is now calling me daily wanting me to pay the 500 he never paid them- Am I really responsible? What if I don’t pay?

THE PERSON WAS RE-ARRESTED WHILE ON BOND, THEN THE BONDSMAN SIGNED OFF HIS BOND. IS THE PERSON OR THE CO-SIGNER STILL LIABLE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE BOND? ANY HELP ON THIS MATTER WOULD BE APPRECIATED, THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.
