The purpose of bail is to assure the attendance of the defendant, when his or her appearance is required in court. When a person is arrested they are taken to the county jail for processing. After being booked in at the jail, the defendant is usually given a bond however this can depend on the charge and other factors such as current probation, domestic violence, etc. In some cases a person could be released on their own recognizance or pretrial release. Again, those possibilities depend on the charge, previous arrest history, local county rules and of course, the judge presiding over the first appearance hearing. You may post a cash bond directly with the jail but keep in mind that it is possible that any court costs ordered to be paid may be taken directly out of the cash bond posted. If all the above options are exhausted, you will need to contact a bail bondsman.
