Bail and Bondsman

Bail is the money or property signed over to the court’s keeping as a form of collateral to secure the temporary release of a pretrial inmate. The bail is used to guarantee that the defendant will return to court for the trial and follow all the terms and conditions of the court order. If the defendant violates the conditions of his release, then the bail is forfeited.

A bondsman is in the business of posting bail on behalf of pretrial inmates who cannot afford to do so on their own. He typically charges 10% of the bail amount as his fee. This is non-refundable.
