The fact that no loss shall result to any surety or bondsman is immaterial.B. Whoever commits the crime of jumping bail when the bail is to assure the presence of the defendant for those cases defined as misdemeanors in this Title and in the Uniform Controlled Dangerous Substances Law shall be imprisoned for not more than six months, or fined not more than five hundred dollars, or both.C. Whoever commits the crime of jumping bail when the bail is to assure the presence of the defendant for those cases defined as felonies in this Title and in the Uniform Controlled Dangerous Substances Law shall be imprisoned at hard labor for not more than two years.Added by Acts 1950, No. 385, §1.
