   PER CURIAM.

The plaintiff in error, Dad's Bail Bonds, LLC, brings this writ of error challenging the judgment of the trial court denying its motion for release from surety obligations arising out of a $45,000 bond it had posted on behalf of the defendant in the underlying criminal case, Stanley Morris. After Morris failed to appear in court as required, the court ordered the bond forfeited. The plaintiff in error claims that the trial court violated its right to due process in numerous ways during the adjudication of its motion for release and that, pursuant to General Statutes § 54-65c, it was entitled to release from its surety obligation.

The plaintiff in error's procedural due process claims were not preserved below, and we have, therefore, reviewed them pursuant to the standard set forth in State v. Golding , 213 Conn. 233, 239-40, 567 A.2d 823 (1989), as modified by In re Yasiel R. , 317 Conn. 773, 781, 120 A.3d 1188 (2015). Having thoroughly reviewed the record, we are not persuaded that the plaintiff in error's right to due process was infringed in any manner. We also conclude that the court properly denied the plaintiff in error's motion for release from its surety obligations. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the trial court denying the plaintiff in error's motion for release.

The writ of error is denied.
