Re: wage garnishment

"Just" a signatory on his bond means that if he skips out, YOU are liable to the bail bondsman.

Sometimes, if you are not in control of the person under bail, the court will permit you to withdraw, but you have to file a petition and attend a hearing explaining why. In that event, the court may also decide to revoke bond.
