Bail is needed when someone gets arrested and needs to get out of jail QUICKLY. The bail schedule for each crime/charge is set by the judges of each county. The judges use bail as a deposit to secure the person’s return to court after they are released from jail. In order to bail, you will need one of the following:
CASH BAIL:
Payment in full (cash) at the jail for the FULL BAIL amount.
BAIL BOND:
Can be purchased for a small percentage of the bail at HOUSE OF BAIL BONDS.
If the person released from jail does not return to court, the bail is forfeited. A bench warrrant is automatically issued by the judge and the full bail amount is due to the court.
