Bail Bonding Funds Considered Public Funds?

Answered by: 

Question: 
Are Bail Bonding funds considered public funds? ie DDA or Time account held in the name of Bail Bondsman Co?
Answer: 

All the bail bondsmen that I am aware of are private individuals or companies and are in no way related to any public governmental entity. A bail bondsman posts a person's bail for a payment of a lesser amount, similar to making them a high interest rate loan. It is a business and not a public service.
