The converse of that is it's almost impossible for IL residents to obtain a Bail Bond in another State. What Bondsman in his or her right mind is going to write a Bond for a resident where it is practically illegal for him to recover a bail jumper?
The result is that many Bondsmen will simply not post Bonds for any IL resident.
Another wonderful result is that the Cook County Sheriff Fugitive has about a 4 year backlog of warrants to serve.
Great system.

Bail bondsmen who write for Illinois residents ask for a lot more collateral, guarantors, etc., but it may take a defendant longer to find one who will bother.
That said, you can locate and cause the arrest of the skip on the basis if the bench warrant issued the moment he became an FTA. The bail bondsman can contact his local DA to arrange extradition and, depending on the state, the wheels may be greased by the fact that the issuance of bail is a legal contract which, under the Full Faith and Credit clause of the Constitution, must be recognized by Illinois. The bail bond contract should stipulate that the defendant shall upon demand leave the boundaries of the state of Illinois.
Even then, he must be taken to the state line by an Illinois-licensed PI under the supervision of the IL vcourt, which must supervise the entire "ballet." The skip is handed over to the bondsman or his agent just across the state line from IL. Phew!!
FReepmail me if you'd be interested in obtaining such knowledge through real-time, "live" instruction from an long-established school which, ironically, is headquartered in Illinois but rarely offers training seminars therein...
The secret that most LEOs don't know or understand is that bail arrests done in a lawful manner by trained professionals (not one a la "Dog") each year account for some 87% of the bail fugitive recoveries at absolutely no cost to the taxpayer!!. Finally, FWIW, my screen name has nothing to do with pencils, crayons, and paper.... 8~)
