Will you be arrested if you signed a defendant bail and they skip court?

If you signed a bail bond for a defendant who skips court, you are not automatically arrested. However, the court may issue a bench warrant for the defendant's arrest, and as the bail signer, you could be held financially responsible for the bail amount. Additionally, the bail bond company may pursue you for the amount if the defendant fails to appear. It's advisable to consult with a legal professional for specific guidance in such situations.
