Are his parents going to lose their house now?
No. Bail is collateral if a person fails to appear. Bail term revocation and bail bond forfeiture are entirely different things.
The New York government [pdf warning] says [emphasis added]:
He wasn’t charged by NY state. The southern district of NY(SDNY) is a federal court. In federal court:
Though they can both happen for the same reasons, they are separate things, and one doesn’t happen automatically because of the other.
In this case:
His bail was revoked. His bail was not forfeited.
I don’t think in any state bail revocation makes bail forfeiture automatic. They’re separate actions.
The court would make two separate rulings:
And the headline would read Bankman bail revoked and forfeited
Thank you for the clarification: I appreciate it, and I leave a more knowledgeable person than I was before!
Good natured discussion is contagious. Thank you for being so chill.
I should have mentioned this too::
To be fair, this statement I made incorrect in a way:
It’s loosely (or more so) implies something that is somewhat incorrect. It somewhat implies that bail is only for collateral. And that’s not true either. As you mentioned. The fact that bail can be forfeited for numerous things all lends a secondary purpose of insuring that not only they appear, but also comply with other terms of their bail.
I didn’t mean to imply that was it’s only purpose. I meant to imply it was the primarily purpose, but most importantly I meant to make a distinction between revocation and forfeiture.
