  1. Understanding How Bail Bonds Work

  2. The bail bond system is common in many justice systems and it allows you to be free while the period before your trial and sentencing. While the system is common, not many people understand how it works. Here is an explanation of how it works:

  3. When an arrest is made When you are arrested, you are taken to court for a bail hearing. During the hearing, you can plead guilty or not guilty and it's at this hearing that the presiding judge sets the bail amount.

  4. After setting the bail • When a judge sets bail, you can pay the amount to get out of jail. Depending on your state or country of residence, you will likely need to pay the bond to the court clerk or to the jail. • In some states the judge requires you to pay a bail bond to a bondsman, who is a third-party authorized by the court to handle the money. The bondsman will then release you until your trial date.

  5. Awaiting the trial • When you have been released from jail, you must report to the courthouse at the time of your trial. If you fail to appear in court on the set date, you will forfeit the bail money paid for your release and an arrest warrant will be issued for your arrest. After the trial • If you are found not guilty of the charges, a judge will clear them from your record; however, if you are found guilty of the charges, you will be required to pay a fine. In some cases, you will be required to serve additional time in jail. • You may claim the money you paid for your bond by contacting the state in which you obtained the bond. Some states charge a small fee for such refund requests, but other states refund you in full.

  6. Conclusion • Bail bonds can vary from state to state and country to country. If you want more details on the bond process, you should consider talking to a professional bail agent. • Asking questions is an important part of the buying process. For example, if you're interested in acquiring a bond, you can ask a bond agent about current market conditions. • Criminals who have previously bonded out are excellent sources of information regarding bond procedures. If you know someone who has been bonded before, approach that person and ask him to explain how the procedure works.
