§ 62-88. Discharge of surety by surrender of principal; notice of surrender.

Any surety upon a bail bond may surrender the principal at any time to the officer on duty at the station house, who shall confine the principal until the principal has been discharged by order of the municipal court or by giving other and good security. This delivery of the principal shall discharge the surety of all further liability upon this bond, and the court shall after final judgment relieve the surety of the penalty of the bond upon the surrender of the principal. The chief of corrections or designated representative shall promptly advise the bond administrator and the particular court involved of any principal surrendered.
