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.

SB 1863 amends Tennessee's bail bond reporting law by changing quarterly deadline dates for two groups: bondsmen and court clerks. Specifically, it moves the filing deadline 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 bill directly affects bail bondsmen and court clerks who handle bond-related paperwork. The change only adjusts the reporting schedule without altering any substantive bail procedures or requirements. The amendment applies to Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 40, Chapter 11, Section 40-11-314.
