No, in Texas, for criminal purposes, you considered an adult at the age of 17. Speak with a criminal defense attorney in your area. Your first goal should be to keep this charge off your record. The local criminal defense attorney will be able to better advice you on how to keep it off your record.

Will a bondsman refund money if a charge was dismissed?

Jose C. Romero
Answered by attorney Jose C. Romero
Criminal Law lawyer at Romero & Associates
A bondsman has nothing to do with your case.  His only responsibility is to put up the security for you to be in court and for that they charge a fee.  Typical fee is 10%.  Most people go to a bondsman because they cant afford to put up $25,000, so they pay a bonds man to put up that amount.  if you put up the $25,000 with the county then all monies are returned to you when the case is over and if the bond has not been forfeited.  This happens whether you are found guilty or not guilty. The only thing the bondsman has to worry about is you showing up to court.  If you don't, he has to pay the $25,000 to the county. So if all you paid the bondsman was a fee for putting up your $25,000 bond then that money does not return to you regardless of the outcome of the case.  That is how bondmen make a living.  I hope this answer was helpful and thanks for contacting us for your legal questions.

The best advice is for you guys to hire the best attorney you can afford. Showing the cops your bank statements isn't going to be enough to convince them you didn't participte in the theft. There are some other angles worth pursuing, but you want those to be explored by and through your attorney.
