What is Bail and How is it Set?

When someone is arrested in San Fernando Valley will likely be taken to the Van Nuys jail. A professional bondsman can get your bond started right away. Bail can't be posted until after that person's bail is set, but the bail bond process can get started immediately.

What is Bail?

Bail is a amount set by the court which allows the defendant to be released from jail until their court date.

The amount a person's bail is set at is determined by several factors, such as whether they have ties to the community, the crimal charges and prior arrests. The "Los Angeles County Bail Schedule" is set by the court on an annual basis and provides guidelines for setting bail. Keep in mind, though, that these guidelines are general. If Jack Smith has been arrested several times, has missed court dates, and is considered to be a flight risk, his bail will very likely be set higher (or denied) than it would be for someone who has a clean record.
