As of January 1st 2010, Penal Code 1299 also known as the Bail Fugitive Recovery Persons Act is no longer in effect. The law that was enacted in 1990 was passed in order to set training standards and requirements for individuals who wanted to become Bounty Hunters in California. What does this all mean? Well if your already a bounty hunter and 1299 compliant this doesn't affect you at all, but if you are a person who did not have the training required by Penal Code 1299, then you no longer need the training certifications specified in 1299 . This also means that there are no longer any requirements like age or criminal history. This law was an important part of the Bail Enforcement industry, and to many already in the field it is a law that they strongly feel should be renewed because of the amount of serious problems that may arise with individuals working in bail recovery who do not have the training or knowledge to safely recover a fugitive.
NOTE: 3EI will not hire nor work with anyone with less than formal training. Just because the law says you're of means nothing to 3EI............................... and 3EI does perform it's own BG checks.
