Original Court Document: View Document
Bobby Cox Bail Bonds, Inc. appeals a bond-forfeiture judgment issued by the Pulaski County Circuit Court on April 5, 2021, concerning a surety bond written for David Martinez, who failed to appear at a May 14 omnibus hearing. The appellant contends that the court erred by granting the forfeiture judgment due to a lack of notice about the bond hearing. The Arkansas Court of Appeals affirms the lower court's judgment, referencing the similar case of First Arkansas Bail Bonds, Inc. v. State, 2022 Ark. App. 397, which was decided on the same day. The appellate court incorporates the reasoning from that case and confirms the $10,000 bond-forfeiture judgment against Bobby Cox Bail Bonds, Inc. Judges Vaught and Brown concurred with the decision. Representation for the appellant was provided by J. Jeff Wankum of Wankum Law Firm, while the appellee was represented by Leslie Rutledge, Attorney General, and Christopher R. Warthen, Assistant Attorney General.
