How the Bail Bond Process Works in California
In California, bail bonds can be posted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The release process may take longer at larger detention centers, while smaller jails may have a quicker release process. All defendants must be booked and processed, which can take up to 4-6 hours. Release times at smaller jails can be quicker, while detention center release times can take up to 18 hours.
How Much Does a Bail Bond Cost in California Jails?
The cost of a bail bond varies from 8% to 10% of the penal amount. For example, if bail has been set at $50,000, then the cost will be $4,000 to $5,000. We offer discounts to veterans, AARP members, union members, and defendants with retained criminal defense attorneys. We also have payment plans available for clients who qualify.
How Long is a Bail Bond Good For in California?
Bail bonds expire after two years. If a bond is applied to a case, then the bond will be good for up to 24 months while the case is open. If a case is not filed by the District Attorney's office within 15 days of the original arraignment, then the bond will be exonerated, meaning the bail bond will be closed after 15 days of non-filing.
What Happens if the District Attorney Files a Case After a Bail Bond Has Been Exonerated?
If the District Attorney does not file within 1 year of the original bail bond posting, then a new bail bond will be required.
What Is a Cosigner or Indemnitor?
A cosigner (aka indemnitor) is a person who will insure the defendant meets their court appearance obligations. A cosigner is a person who promises to pay the bail bond company if the defendant they posted bail for refuses to make their court obligations.
