FAQ

Travel Restrictions. Defendants out on bond are often required to remain within a certain geographic area, usually within the state or county where the case is being prosecuted. Travel outside of this area is typically prohibited unless explicitly permitted by the court.

Bailing someone out from another state involves extra steps (for good reasons). Generally, you must go through additional steps to verify your identity. You will need to sign several documents confirming your identity.

In some jurisdictions, the court may also allow you to post a property bond, which will use property that you own as collateral for your conditional release. Unfortunately, though, if your bail amount is high, you may not have the resources to post bail with the court on your own.

Leaving California on Bail with a Bond Posting bail via a bondsman doesn't impact the travel limitations of your bail agreement. However, you should still inform the bail bondsman about your travel plans as they are currently responsible for your court appearances and the finances used to secure your freedom.

Even when operating across state lines, bail bond agencies must adhere to the local laws and regulations of each state. This includes differences in the amount of bail, conditions for release, and the procedures for posting bail.

You may post bail for yourself, have someone over 18 years old post it on your behalf or use a bondsman. The person posting bail for you assumes full responsibility for your appearance in court. If you fail to appear as required, a warrant will be issued for your immediate arrest and the bail will be forfeited.

Massachusetts does not have bail bondsmen, so whoever is going to post the bail will have to come up with the entire amount. Sometimes this takes a matter of days, or longer, during which the defendant will be held at the county jail.
