There are no licenced bounty hunters in FLwow, what good is that? Padilla's couldn't even take Casey into custody if she ran--they aren't licensed in state of Fl
10. Bounty Hunter Provisions.
Florida does not allow bounty hunters.
Apprehension of bail fugitives is only allowed as set forth in FS 648.30(2)&(3):
(2) No person shall represent himself or herself to be a bail enforcement agent, bounty hunter, or other similar title in [Florida].
(3) No person, other than a certified law enforcement officer, shall be authorized to apprehend, detain, or arrest a principal on a bond, wherever issued, unless that person is qualified, licensed, and appointed as provided in this chapter or licensed as a bail bond agent by the state where the bond was written.
Violation of this is a 3rd class felony. [FS 648.30(4)].
