What is the purpose of a bail bond?
The purpose of a bail bond is to enable individuals accused of a crime to be released from jail pending their court hearings. When a person is arrested, the court may set a bail amount that must be paid in order for the accused individual to be released from custody. However, not everyone can afford to pay the full bail amount upfront. This is when a bail bond comes into play. A bail bond is a contract between the bail bonds company, the accused person or their family member, and the court. By paying a percentage of the bail amount to the bail bonds company, the accused person can secure their release. The bail bond acts as a guarantee that the defendant will appear in court for their scheduled hearings.
