Further conditions of the bond are that the defendant is not to depart the State of New Mexico, except in accordance with such orders or warrants as may be issued by the court; that the defendant is to abide by any judgment entered in such matter by surrendering himself to serve any sentence imposed and obeying any order or direction in connection with such judgment as the court imposing it may prescribe.

If the defendant appears as ordered and otherwise obeys and performs the foregoing conditions of this bond, then this bond is to be void, but if the defendant fails to obey or perform any of these conditions, payment of the amount of this bond shall be due forthwith. Forfeiture of this bond for any breach of its conditions may be declared by any court having cognizance of the above-entitled matter at the time of such breach; and if the bond is forfeited and if the forfeiture is not set aside, upon motion judgment may be entered against each debtor jointly and severally for the amount above stated, together with interest and costs, and execution may be issued and payment secured as provided by law.

By executing this bail bond the sureties submit to the jurisdiction of the court and irrevocably appoint the clerk of the court as their agent upon whom papers affecting their liability may be served.

IT IS AGREED AND UNDERSTOOD THAT THIS IS A CONTINUING BOND WHICH SHALL CONTINUE IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE BOND IS DULY EXONERATED AND DISCHARGED BY THE COURT. THE BOND GUARANTEES THE APPEARANCE OF THE DEFENDANT.
