A bail bond is a financial guarantee provided by a licensed bail bondsman to the court, ensuring that the defendant will appear for all scheduled court proceedings. The bondsman posts the bail on behalf of the defendant, and in return, the defendant or a co-signer pays a premium, typically 10% of the total bail amount.
The process of securing a property bond involves several steps, including: Property Valuation. The court requires an appraisal of the property to verify its value and ensure it meets the required equity threshold. Lien Placement. Legal Documentation. Court Approval. Defendant's Release.
A person commits the crime of first-degree criminal trespass if such person knowingly and unlawfully enters or remains in a dwelling of another or if such person enters any motor vehicle with intent to commit a crime therein. First-degree criminal trespass is a class 5 felony.
For example, someone who ignores visible, posted ''No Trespassing'' signs is committing criminal trespass because they know that they are entering a property without permission. Civil trespass simply involves entering onto some else's property and, in most cases, does not involve a knowing or willing intent to intrude.
The bail amounts for aggravated trespass can range from $1,000 to $50,000 and for violation of a restraining order from $10,000 to $40,000.

Trespass is an area of tort law broadly divided into three groups: trespass to the person (see below), trespass to chattels, and trespass to land. Trespass to the person historically involved six separate trespasses: threats, assault, battery, wounding, mayhem (or maiming), and false imprisonment.
(2)(a) Second-degree criminal trespass in violation of subsection (1)(a) or (1)(b) of this section is a petty offense, but it is a class 4 felony if the person trespasses on premises so classified as agricultural land with the intent to commit a felony thereon.
