How have the courts dealt with a clerical error in a bond?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from County of Los Angeles v. Ind. Lumbermens Mut. Ins. Co., B221528 (Cal. App. 2011):

The County further argued the trial court's clerical error did not exonerate the bond, relying on People v. Legion Ins. Co. (2002) 102 Cal.App.4th 1192. Finally, the County argued the bail agent's reliance on the trial court record was unreasonable, as there was one clerical error in the minute order and one missing digit in the notice of forfeiture. The bail agent should have realized the minute order contained a clerical error, as it had notice of the forfeiture at an early date and the interpretation of the bail agent of the document as a whole was unreasonable.
