II INVASION OF PRIVACY, A MISDEMEANOR On Counts I and II the Court sentences the defendant to the Montgomery County Jail for a period of 180 days. Court suspends said sentence.

Court enters a fine of $0 and assesses court costs of $159.00, and a $500.00 public defender fee. Count I to run consecutive to Count II. Counts III and IV dismissed.
In May 2007, probation ended and case was closed.
When will the balance of my bond be returned?

Re: Return of Bail
Oh, Oh! You should have requested your bond back when your friend was sentenced. Present your bond receipt ASAP to the court.
Only defendants who post their own bond with their name on the receipt have to wait until the court takes its costs out of the bond.
