Bail - Frequently Asked Questions back to top

What is Bail? What is a bail bond?
And, what's the history of bail bonds?

Traditionally, bail is some form of property deposited or pledged to a court in order to persuade it to release a suspect from jail, on the understanding that the suspect will return for trial or forfeit the bail ("skipping bail" or "jumping bail" is also illegal). Learn more in JH Bail's related section.

What are my rights to bail? Are there different laws in different states?

How Do I Get A Bond?

There are four ways in which a person may be released from custody:

Do I get my money back after the case is over?

There are a few exceptions to this but you do not get your premium back that you paid to the bonding office. This fee is what allowed the defendant to get out of jail and is fully earned once the defendant is out of custody. For example, if the defendant gets rearrested a week later, you get neither portion nor a refund of any money. If the bondsman fails to live up to his end of the contract, then and only then may you be entitled to a refund of some kind.

Can I leave the state or country while I am out on bond?

You will have to get permission from the bonding office in writing before attempting to do so. If the court has given you direct instructions not to leave the state or country you must then get permission from the bondsmen and the court before leaving. Otherwise you are subject to arrest!

What happens if the defendant misses their court date?

When the defendant misses a court appearance, a bench warrant is issued for the person's arrest. The defendant's name is then entered into a nation wide data base (NCIC) as a fugitive. The defendant's Bail Agency is obligated by law to arrest individual as well. This will cause the indemnator to incur further costs.

What happens if the case goes more than a year?

There is from time to time where a criminal case may take more then a year, and in this case a second premium will be owed to keep the defendant on bond. It may be wise to contact the attorney and try to get a bail reduction in the 10 or 11 months of the case in order to save a costly renewal premium.

What happens if the defendant gets rearrested while out on bond?

There are remedies that can be done here as well. Contact the bondsman as soon as possible so that they can discuss your options in full detail with you.

What happens if I think the defendant is not going to show up for court after I have already posted the bond?

There are remedies that can be done here as well. Contact the bondsman as soon as possible so that they can discuss your options in full detail with you.

Are some bondsmen less expensive than others?

Bondsmen are licensed by the state in which they practice. State guidelines provide a set rate. Some bondsmen are licensed to write at 8%, meaning that the cost to you the customer will be less but there are certain provisions for this rate.

If you'd like a more detailed explanation on the services of a bail bondsman, please check out JH Bail's related section.

Can the bail bond agent discount the fees on the premium?

The surety files a rate with the department of insurance, which must be changed. Bail is 10% of the bond amount plus an incidental insurance fee of $10-15. Discount fees can lead to the suspension or revocation of any agent's bail license by the department of insurance. There are companies that legally charge 8% and 15 % under certain circumstances. Always ask to see a rate chart if you feel that you are being wrongly charged.

What information should I have before I contact the bail agent?

At what point is the co-signer no longer liable for the bond?

The co-signer is no longer liable for the defendant's bond when he/she completes all of their court appearences and all premiums have been paid. It is best to contact the agent when the bond is exonerated by the court. This allows the fast return of any collateral pledged and also confirms that the bond is exonerated. In the event of forfeiture, the indemnitor is liable until the full amount of the bail has been paid, plus any expenses incurred or until the court exonerates the bond, which then becomes void.
