Step by Step Guide to the Bail Bonds Process
1. Arrest and Booking
- When someone is arrested, they are taken to jail for processing.
- This includes fingerprinting, photographing (mugshot), and entering charges into the system.
- A judge sets the bail amount based on the severity of the offense and other factors.
2. Contact a Bail Bonds Agency
- Call a licensed bail bondsman as soon as possible.
- Provide details such as the full name of the arrested person, the jail location, and the charges.
- The bail agent will explain the process and requirements.
3. Sign the Bail Agreement & Pay the Fee
- A co-signer (typically a friend or family member) must sign the bail bond agreement.
- A non-refundable fee is required.
- Collateral (such as property or a vehicle) may sometimes be needed.
4. Bail Bond Is Posted
- Once the paperwork and payment are complete, the bail bondsman submits the bond to the jail.
- Depending on the facility, the jail processes the release, which can take a few hours.
5. Defendant Is Released With Conditions
- The individual is released but must attend all required court appearances.
- Failing to appear in court can lead to re-arrest and forfeiture of the bond.
6. Case Resolution & Bond Exoneration
- The bond is exonerated once the case is resolved (whether through trial, plea, or dismissal).
- If all conditions are met, any collateral is returned to the co-signer.
