Virginia code 19.2-143 relating to forfeiture times and refunds thereof… has been changed since the wording listed on the FRN website. Just for correctness I think the following is correct. Note the following copied from the code online at: http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504 ... d+19.2-143 I have only copied portions of this code so if you are interested in the entire code you can read it at the above link. “When a person, under recognizance in a case, either as party or witness, fails to perform the condition of appearance thereof, if it is to appear before a court of record, or a district court, a hearing shall be held upon reasonable notice to all parties affording them opportunity to show cause why the recognizance or any part thereof should not be forfeited. The show cause notice shall be issued within 45 days of the breach of the condition of appearance.” The following excerpt reflects an increase from 60 to 150 days. “If the court finds the recognizance or any part thereof should be forfeited, the default shall be recorded therein, unless the defendant or juvenile is brought before the court within 150 days of the findings of default. After 150 days of the finding of default, his default shall be recorded therein, and if it is to appear before a district court, his default shall be entered by the judge of such court, on the case papers unless the defendant or juvenile has been delivered or appeared before the court.” The following excerpt reflects an increase from 12 to 24 months. “If the defendant or juvenile appears before or is delivered to the court within 24 months of the findings of default, the court shall remit any bond previously ordered forfeited by the courts, less such costs as the court may direct.” I just happened to be reading this code from the FRN website and saw that it was out dated… anyway, just trying to be helpful. |
