Bail and Bondsman

When charged with a crime, an individual can be granted release from custody or jail while awaiting trial. This process is called bail. Bail is granted by the court when the defendant promises to appear at all his court dates. In some cases, money and property must also be pledged to the court for bail to be granted. If the defendant fails to appear at his trial, the money or property is lost.

A bondsman is hired when an accused is unable to post bail because of a lack of funds. For a fee, the bondsman will become liable to the court if the defendant does not appear as promised. The fee of a bondsman is non-refundable and normally set at 10% of the bond amount.
