Well, some are close, some have the right idea and some are way off. It depends on a few things. What specifically do you mean by breach? Here are a couple of ways this could play out.
1) Breach wherein it is he simply failed to comply withhthe written bail contract with the bondsman. In which case the bondsman has the right to contract bail enforcement agent to locate, apprehend and surrender him or her back into the custody of the facility from which he was bailed.
2) Breach wherein he or she actually failed to appear for an ordered court appearance. Most likely, there is a warrant for his arrest. Depending on the nature of the charge, it is not likely police will actively be attempting to locate him. However, if he is stopped and has a warrant, he will be arrested. Additionally, the bondsman has the right to contract a bail enforcement agent to locate, apprehend and surrender him or her back into the custody of the facility from which he or she was originally bailed.
In any event, he or she needs to contact his bondsman immediately and talk about what type of accommodations the bondsman is willing to work out. Believe it or not, the bondsman is in a unique position and can often help defendant's find resolution to many similar situations without the defendant having to go back to jail.
