Leonard had to put up $500,000 in assets as collateral in order to get the insurance company to cover the bond. Tony got the 50,000 and never has to give it back. But remember, there is another bondsman involved. Estes. He didn't do this out of the goodness of his heart. He was also paid something. Usually the bondsman gets the 10% and keeps it as his fee. However in this case, anything could go. Maybe TP and LP have an agreement to split the 50,000 and there must be some agreement to give the other guy some money (estes). But it was Leonard to put up the 500,000 in assets to cover the bond. IF Casey doesn't show up in court he stands to lose the whole 500,000. But apparently the rules is they have 90 days to find the person and bring them back before losing the money.
