Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
For the purpose of
surrendering the defendant, the bail at any time or place before they are
finally charged may themselves arrest the defendant; or by a written authority,
endorsed on a certified copy of the undertaking, may empower the sheriff to do
so. Upon the arrest of the defendant by the sheriff, or upon delivery of the
defendant to the sheriff by the bail, or upon the defendants own surrender,
the bail shall be exonerated; provided, such arrest, delivery or surrender
shall take place before the expiration of 10 days after judgment; but if such
arrest, delivery or surrender be not made within 10 days after judgment, the
bail shall be finally charged on their undertaking, and be bound to pay the
amount of the judgment within 10 days thereafter.
