UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Jose Luis TIRADO-AGUILAR, Defendant, and RANGER INSURANCE COMPANY; Henry Guerrero Bail Bonds, Defendants-Appellants.
No. 96-50542.
United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
Aug. 13, 1997.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, No. CR-96-0615-1-JNK; Judith N. Keep, District Judge, Presiding.
Before: BROWNING, BRUNETTI, and TROTT, Circuit Judges.
1 MEMORANDUM* 2 Ranger Insurance Company and Henry Guerrero Bail Bonds appeal the forfeiture of a $50,000 surety bond. "[T]he Government may not enforce the obligation [of a bail bond] if its actions materially increase the risk of the surety without the surety's knowledge and consent." United States v. Galvez-Uriarte, 709 F.2d 1323, 1324 (9th Cir.1983). The district court found that, under the circumstances in this case, the cooperation agreement between defendant Tirado-Aguilar and the Government did not increase the risk that the defendant would flee. These findings are not clearly erroneous, and we affirm the judgment of forfeiture.
3 AFFIRMED.
