A bounty hunter who's job is to catch a fugitive who skipped out on bail does not need any warrants to search a hotel room or the persons residence to see if the fugitive is there.

The bounty hunter also does not need to read the fugitive there Miranda Rights either when arresting someone who skipped out on bail.
