Bail, Bail Bonds - As introduced, requires bondsmen to file the quarterly reports on number of bonds issued by the bondsman in the preceding quarter by the thirtieth day of January, April, July, and October, rather than the twenty-fifth day; requires court clerks to file the quarterly reports on number of bonds accepted by the clerk in the preceding quarter by the thirtieth day of January, April, July, and October, rather than the twenty-fifth day. - Amends TCA Title 40, Chapter 11.
HB 1626 changes the quarterly reporting deadlines for bail bondsmen and court clerks in Tennessee. Specifically, it extends the filing dates for reports on bonds issued (by bondsmen) and bonds accepted (by court clerks) from the 25th to the 30th of January, April, July, and October each year. This procedural adjustment affects all licensed bail bondsmen and court clerks statewide who submit these quarterly reports under Tennessee law. The bill does not alter the content or requirements of the reports, only the submission deadlines.
