Bounty Hunters have varying authority levels.
By admin | April 27, 2009
In the United States of America, bounty hunters have varying authority levels in the obligations, depending on the provinces where they operate. As opined in Taylor v. Taintor, and excluding restrictions applicable state by state, a Bounty Hunter can enter the suspect’s house without a warrant in order to rearrest him/her. In a few provinces, bounty hunters do not undergo any formal training, and are generally not licensed, only requiring sanction from a bail bondsman to operate. However in other states, they are held to varying standards of education and accreditation. In California, bounty hunters have to undergo background checking and take various training programmes that meet the penal code 1299 requirements. In most states they are prohibited from carrying fire arms without special permits. The state of Louisiana stipulates bounty hunters to wear dressing distinguishing them as bounty hunters. In Kentucky, bounty hunting is generally not allowed as the state does not have a bail bondsmen system, and frees bailed suspects through the state’s Pretrial Services division of the courts, thus there is no bondsmen with the right to arrest the runaway. In general, only fugitives who have fled bail from other states where it is legal are allowed to be hunted in Kentucky.
