Bail and Bondsman

Bail is the money pledged to the court as collateral, to guarantee a defendant’s appearance at his trial after he is released from custody. At the end of the trial, the defendant gets a refund of his money minus any court fees. If the defendant does not return for his trial, he forfeits the money. He is also labeled a fugitive.

If a defendant cannot pay the bail, he must remain in jail until the case is dismissed or he is released. He also has the option of hiring a bail bondsman to facilitate his release. A bondsman can act as a surety in exchange for 10% of the bail amount. This fee is non-refundable.
