Procedimiento para la captura de un acusado por un fiador en Minnesota

Explicación Simple

Si un fiador cree que una persona arrestada va a escapar o no se presentará ante el juez, puede arrestarla. Esto significa que el fiador o alguien que él elija puede llevar a esa persona ante el juez.

Es como si un entrenador de fútbol viera que un jugador está a punto de salir corriendo del campo. El entrenador puede hacer que alguien lo detenga y lo lleve de vuelta a la cancha para jugar el partido.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que Juan es el fiador de Carlos, quien tiene que presentarse en el tribunal. Si Juan se entera de que Carlos planea escapar, puede ir a buscarlo y llevarlo al juez antes de que se vaya. Si decide llamar al sheriff, debe darle un documento que explique por qué Carlos debe ser arrestado.

Texto Original del Estatuto (Inglés)

If a surety believes that a defendant for whom the surety is acting as bonding agent (1) is about to flee, (2) will not appear as required by the defendant's recognizance, or (3) will otherwise not perform the conditions of the recognizance, the surety may arrest or have another person or the sheriff arrest the defendant. If the surety or another person at the surety's direction arrests the defendant, the surety or the other person shall take the defendant before the judge before whom the defendant was required to appear and surrender the defendant to that judge. If the surety wants the sheriff to arrest the defendant, the surety shall deliver a certified copy of the recognizance under which the defendant is held to the sheriff, with a direction endorsed on the recognizance requiring the sheriff to arrest the defendant and bring the defendant before the appropriate judge. Upon receiving a certified copy of the recognizance and payment of the sheriff's fees, the sheriff shall arrest the defendant and bring the defendant before the judge. Before a surety who has arrested a defendant who has violated the conditions of release may personally surrender the defendant to the appropriate judge, the surety shall notify the sheriff. If the defendant at the hearing before the judge is unable to post increased bail or meet alternative conditions of release in accordance withrule 6.03of the Rules of Criminal Procedure, the sheriff or a deputy shall take the defendant into custody.
