Orange County Bail Bond Agent

About Cash Bail

Not all bail is processed through a Bail Bond Agent or a Bail Bondsman. In fact, some people have the cash available to pay the full amount of their bail to then be released from custody. When this occurs, it is referred to as "Cash Bail." In this situation, the person needs to provide the court with the full amount of bail, whatever it may be, before he or she can be released from custody. A Bail Bond Agent will not finance any portion of this and will not be involved in the process at all.

After the court accepts the full bail amount, they will keep all the money during the trial until the case is concluded. After the conclusion of the case, the court will normally return all of the money that you posted before your release. However, if you fail to show up to your court appearances, you will forfeit the bail amount and will not receive that money back from the court. In this way, bail is used as an incentive to ensure individuals show up to their necessary court appearances.

Deciding When to Involve a Bail Bondsman

Posting Cash Bail may tie up a person's checking and savings accounts as well as any reserves they have, particularly if the bail amount is very high. It may be beneficial to work with an Orange County Bail Bond Agent for this reason, but it will vary depending upon your specific situation.
