I am making regular monthly payments on the my bail bond. But my bondsman is now requesting a higher monthly amount than I can pay. Can he have my bail revoked if I am making payments as scheduled?

When the bondman bonded you out, he had you sign a bond contract. If you are abiding by the conditions of the contract and are paying the payments as the contract calls for, he cannot change the amount you have to pay without your agreement. Bondsmen are regulated by the State, usually through the Department of Insurance. You can call them with a dispute with the bondsman.
