Simon I was simply pointing the fact out to you the author sorry if you took offence.

Dog The Bounty Hunter is produced by and aired on the A&E network, not the Discovery Channel.

Oh and BTY in Hawaii there are currently no provisions regulating bounty hunters.

Great article Simon! I really enjoyed the last show concerning the bail bonds bussines. I have no doubt, I will learn even more this coming Saturday. Why do some appear to be upset over such a harmless topic?

WilMic - Get a life, it was me (the author) that used the term Bounty Hunter. Yes you are correct, Cobra, nor any of his fellows in Florida can use the term.

The term Bounty Hunter is a vernacular one, could you imgagine Discovery going with ‘Dog The Surety Agent’?

I suggest that you tune in on Saturday, you might learn a few things. The quote you left was indeed quite accurate, yet taken out of context.

Referring to yourself as a Bounty Hunter is a felony Florida.

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)].
