Common Cash Only Bond Questions

What are cash only bonds?

When you get arrested and taken to county jail, a judge or other judicial officer will determine your bail, which is the amount of money you must pay in order to get out of jail before your court date. 

Bail prices vary from case to case because they depend on several factors, including:

• Criminal Record: Costs can be higher for individuals with a criminal record – or those with outstanding fines and warrants – because they’re considered a higher risk for committing another crime.
• Financial Ability: Individuals who have the financial resources to flee the country or hire a private attorney might see higher bail prices.
• Flight Risk: Individuals considered a “flight risk” will see higher bail prices for concern of jumping bail and not returning to court for the hearing.
• Severity of Charges: Costs vary depending on the severity of charges. For example, costs are higher for more violent crimes than for non-violent crimes.

If you have severe charges, prior offenses or are a flight risk in the eyes of the court, you are unlikely to be allowed to get a bail bond. The judge will require you to pay a cash only bond, which is the full amount of your bail, before you get out of jail before your hearing.

The judge will take into consideration the severity of your charges, your past criminal record, your danger to the public, and your flight risk. Your flight risk is the chance that you will jump bail or not show up for your court date.
