| Post subject: | Bail Bond Lawsuit Reaches Settlement |
Bail bond lawsuit reaches settlement The Salt Lake Tribune A lawsuit claiming the Utah Department of Insurance unfairly suspended a bail bonds company's business was settled Friday for $20,300. The amount represents income lost by Rebel Bail Bonds during the 10 days in 2005 it ceased writing bonds. In issuing the suspension in June 2005, the insurance department alleged that Rebel, which is based in Duchesne and does business throughout Utah, had written bonds above the limit set by the state. Rebel said the state erroneously included bonds that had been exonerated when court cases were dismissed or the defendants were sentenced, and complained that the department opted for immediate suspension instead of giving the company the chance to straighten out the misunderstanding. Its suit, filed January in U.S. District Court, alleged that suspending a company without holding a hearing first was a denial of due process. |
