The money lodged with the court in exchange for the temporary release of a pretrial inmate from custody is called bail. It will be used to ensure the inmate’s presence at his trial once it starts. If he fails to make an appearance, the bail is revoked and forfeited.
A bondsman can post bail on behalf of a pretrial inmate who cannot afford to do it on his own. He will, of course, require a fee which is usually 10% of the bail amount. The fee cannot be refunded.
