58FB  Notice of proposed forfeiture
 (1) The prosecutor may apply to the Court for a direction under subsection (2) if the accused allegedly fails to appear before the Court in accordance with the accused's bail undertaking.
 (2) The Court may direct the Registrar to give a notice to:
 (a) each person who provided security for the accused's bail; and
 (b) any other person who the Court considers may have an interest in security provided for the accused's bail.
A failure by the Registrar to give a notice to a person covered by the direction, if the Registrar has made reasonable efforts to do so, does not affect the validity of any forfeiture order.
 (3) The notice must:
 (a) invite the person to show cause, by filing an objection in accordance with paragraphs 58FC(3)(b) and (c), why the security should not be forfeited; and
 (b) contain the particulars set out in the Rules of Court.
 (4) An application under subsection (1) cannot be made more than 6 months after the alleged failure to appear before the Court.
