The case began on April 20, 2022, when North River, through its bail agent Bad Boys Bail Bonds, posted a $180,000 bond for defendant Torian Bramlett. On August 3, 2023, Bramlett failed to appear in court. The trial court declared the bond forfeited the same day, and the clerk mailed a notice of forfeiture, setting the appearance period to expire on February 4, 2024. On January 31, 2024, North River moved to extend the appearance period to August 21, 2024, and the court granted the extension on February 23, 2024.
