  • Appellant Bartsh Bail Bonds posted appearance bonds of $15,000 and $20,000 on behalf of defendants Tina Brenteson and John Howard Rose. When defendants failed to appear for scheduled court hearings, the district court ordered the bail bonds forfeited. Following the subsequent apprehension of Brenteson and surrender by Rose, appellant made a motion for reinstatement and discharge of the bail. Appellant contends the district court erred by granting its motion subject to a requirement that it pay penalties of $7,500 and $10,000. We affirm.
