MS SB2315

Requires court clerks to accept set-aside orders on behalf of sureties when the surety was not provided notice of a defendant's failure to appear, with failure to notify within 10 working days creating prima facie evidence the order shall be set aside.

Mandates all felony warrants issued for nonappearance be placed on the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) index with no restrictions until the defendant is returned to custody.

Extends the notification period for bail bond surety license revocation from 10 to 30 working days after the Department of Insurance notifies the surety, allowing sureties additional time to prevent revocation.

Authorizes sureties to submit proof to the Department of Insurance that a defendant has been surrendered or the bond paid before license revocation becomes effective, including receipts, surrender certificates, or notices from proper authorities.

Creates Section 99-5-41 establishing when bail bonds become null and void: upon guilty verdict, dismissal, retirement of charges, surrender of defendant, or sentencing to nonadjudication or alternative sentence; effective July 1, 2025.
