  3. Steps • If you are placed in jail, you may be able to get out prior to your trial if you “post bail.” Bail is money you pay to the court in order to ensure that you will appear in court when told to do so. If you do appear as required, the bail will be refunded to you. If you do not show up, the court keeps the money and can issue a warrant for your arrest.

  4. Bail Bonds • Bail may be paid in cash or in a cash equivalent. You may also be allowed, depending upon the circumstances, to post a bond. • A bond is a guarantee of payment of the full bail amount should the need arise. 

  5. Not every arrested individual is entitled to bail.  • In particularly heinous crimes, or where there is a risk that the defendant will flee the jurisdiction or harm members of the public, bail may be denied and the defendant will be kept in jail as a “pre-trial detainee.” 

  6. The judge is responsible for setting your bail. In many jurisdictions, there is a pre-set schedule listing the bail amounts for particular crimes. • In other situations, bail may be determined on a case-by-case basis. The Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution requires that bail not be excessive.

  7. Jail Houses • The San Diego Sheriff’s Department uses technology, such as Cyber Crime Squad with joint Terrorism Task Force paired with an outstanding forensic lab that expedites the evidence promptly to apprehend and prosecute the criminals.
