STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS26546C1
The purpose of this bill is to set guidelines to the profession of bounty hunting. It is a compromise bill where
the needs of law enforcement, the general public and bail enforcement agents have been taken into account.
Currently, there is no law at all that regulates the profession. This bill will rectify that.
FISCAL NOTE
There is no impact to the state general fund whatever since no state regulatory agency is involved. There will
be a small cost to local law enforcement and the courts as potential violations of the new law are enforced.
