Section 15-13-118

Arrest of defendant by surety after conditional forfeiture.

After the entry of a conditional forfeiture against any surety on an undertaking of bail, the surety may arrest the defendant as provided in Section 15-13-117, but the arrest and delivery of the defendant to the authorized jail as stated in Section 15-13-117 shall not exonerate the surety unless, in the judgment of the court, a good and sufficient cause is given for the failure of the defendant to appear at the time the conditional judgement was entered.

(Acts 1993, No. 93-677, p. 1259, §19.)
