LLOHANANKLET071707.jpgBail bondsman David Perez tells X17online he was called by Lindsay Lohan's attorney Shawn Chapman Holley today to appear at the Beverly Hills Courthouse in response to today's emergency hearing for what has been deemed as a violation of probation.

After officials received no fewer than FIVE violations by Lindsay, as recorded by her SCRAM alcohol and drug monitoring ankle bracelet on Sunday night when the information was uploaded to the city's computers, Judge Marcia Revel had Lindsay's attorney appear at the Beverly Hills Courthouse to hear her decision on the situation which is ... a warrant issued for Lindsay's arrest AND a bail increase to $200,000 (from a previous $100,000 which is now forfeited due to her violation).

Perez tells us: "We don't even know what we're gonna do right now; we're just waiting."

He confirmed to X17 the $100K was now forfeited. He refused to answer questions about whether Lindsay has been a reliable, responsible client but when asked if he thinks Lindsay is a risk he said, "Sure, I do."

And it's understandable he'd feel that way -- by posting Lindsay's original bail, Perez accepted the liability that is Lindsay Lohan -- in other words, if she violates bail and forfeits the original $100K, she's forfeiting PEREZ'S $100K and now he's gotta post another $100K!

Legal website Avvo.com explains the situation this way:

The general rule is that the bondsman requires 10% of the actual bail amount to be posted with him and he in turn posts that along with the remaining 90%, with the court. The catch is that the 10% is non-refundable even if you are completely compliant with all conditions and make every court appearance. It is essential the bondsman's fee for the loan. However, logic dictates that once the money is non-refundable to the defendant he no longer has any financial incentive to show up for Court. Therefore bondsmen are essentially forced into the "bounty hunter" business, because it is their money that is forfeited if the defendant flees. The only way to get their money back is if the bondsman tracks down the defendant and collects on any collateral they may have posted in order to get the loan.

I hope Perez had some of Lilo's assets tied to this bail loan to secure it. Think he'd accept payment in leggings???
