Bailing someone out of jail who has a history of untrustworthy behavior can create headaches. You're essentially agreeing to put up 10 percent of a bail bond that could be tens of thousands — or even hundreds of thousands — of dollars. If they fail to show, then you went to all that extra trouble for nothing.
The purpose of bail is twofold: it is intended to protect the public and to ensure you return to court for all of your hearing dates as ordered by the judge. Now, there are a couple different ways to satisfy your bail requirement.
If you can't make bail, you remain in custody until your court date—a timeline that could span weeks or months.
The decision to post bail for someone should not be taken lightly. Financially, you risk losing the bail amount or collateral if the defendant fails to appear in court. Legally, the defendant's absence can lead to arrest warrants and additional charges, complicating their legal situation further.
