I bailed a friend out on a 50,000 bail. I paid a surety bond 5,000 to have her released. She went to all her court dates but missed one. She was out on bail for six months. When she missed the court date the bail company contacted me and I assured them she is not running I know where she is and she is turning herself in to the sheriffs. They said that's nice she needs to turn herself into us and you owe us 8,000. I turned her into the sheriffs department within 2 weeks of the missed court dates. Meanwhile we were in contact with the bail company the whole time. After I turned her in I received a invoice stating that I own 8,500 to them. 5,000 for a fugitive fee, 2,500 for court fees and 1,500 for attorney fees. I told them I would be willing to pay if they sent me itemized invoices of where all the money went. They sent me some cheap looking invoices with just the above amounts listed. Now I am being sued. What, if any, arguments do I have? Also they released my bail contract to my job without being subpoena.. I in return was fired due to misconduct. When I signed the bail paperwork they assured me it was confidential and would only be released with a subpoena. It had my social and everything clear as day. All my job did was fax a letter over asking them to help with a investigation. They sent everything right over. Is this some type of intrusion of my privileged information. Any help would deff be appreciated.
