Section 648.285(2), F.S., provides that if the owner of a bail bond agency dies or becomes mentally incapacitated, a personal representative or legal guardian may be issued a temporary permit to manage the affairs of the bail bond agency. The application for a temporary permit must be made by the personal representative or legal guardian upon statements and affidavits filed with the Department on forms prescribed and furnished by it. The rule will allow a bail bond agency to continue operating after the death or incapacity of the licensed owner without requiring the person acting as the personal representative or legal guardian to obtain a license. The agency can then be sold and the proceeds added to the estate of the agent, or the personal representative can use the temporary permit to continue running and receiving profits from the agency while a permanent license is obtained.
