Bail and Bondsman

If a person is arrested for an illegal offense, he may deposit money or put down property with the court in exchange for his temporary release while awaiting trial. This is called bail and used by the court to ensure that the defendant will appear in court when the trial starts. The defendant gets the money/property back after the trial, minus some court fees. However, he forfeits the bail if he does not show up as promised.

If a person cannot afford bail, he can use the services of a bail bondsman. A bondsman can act as a surety in exchange for a fee. This fee is 10% of the bail amount and cannot be refunded.
