About bails? how does that work? please i need answers

Question

Well my bf was arrested for accidentaly running two of his friends over and the bail is 30,000

Answer 1

Best to call a bail bondsman -- there are different kinds of bonds -- and they can explain it to you and tell you how the process works for each type.

Answer 2

If the bond was a cash bond, then you would have to post 10% of that to the court (usually throught the Clerk).  At the end of the process, if he convicted, that $ usually goes towards his court costs, etc.  If it is a surety bond, the you will have to pay a bondman a fee (usually 10% of the amount).  That $ will go to the bondsman and you won't see that $ again.  Of course, keep in mind that each state is different so the amounts and proceedures could be different.  

Answer 3

Call DOG the bounty hunter!!!
