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 state of Florida, like the rest of the nation, allows offenders to post bail if they're eligible after their first appearance. The bail amount will be determined by several factors and the defendant will have the option of paying the bail in full or finding a bondsman.
No - if you signed the bond it doesn't matter whether you have a job or not - or whether the bondsman asked you if you did. You are liable as surety on the bond - having a job or not has nothing to do with your liability. Sorry.
Default bond requirements for misdemeanors and felonies are as follows: City or county ordinance violation – $250.00. Second-degree misdemeanor – $250.00. First-degree misdemeanor & non-felony DUI – $500.00.
If you can't afford bail, you will remain in jail until your court date, which can range from weeks for minor offenses to months or even years for serious charges. The timeline largely depends on the complexity of the case, the court's schedule, and whether there are any delays in the legal process.
