    But you also don’t get hunted down by a bounty hunter and you don’t get additional charges for skipping your court date.

    Oh you absolutely do get hunted down by a bounty hunter and get additional charges for skipping your court date. Bail Bondsmen don’t take kindly to losing money because you skipped bail. If you could avoid additional charges and getting hunted down, everybody would just run to their local bail bondsman, drop 10%, and then just skip town.

      Sorry, that was worded very poorly on my part. I don’t even know what I was trying to say there but it should be “as long as you show up for your court date.” I think I forgot what I was typing out halfway through that sentence, hahaha.

      Edit: I just figured out what happened. That was meant to be a continuation from the first sentence, not a separate thought. Rearranged and commas added for clarity: You don’t get your $300 back, you don’t get hunted down by a bounty hunter, and you don’t get additional charges for skipping out when you show up on your court date(s).
