How the bail system works. When a person is arrested, they are entitled to a bail hearing within 24 hours of their arrest, regardless of what they have been charged with. The bail hearing determines if they can be released from custody until their trial date.
Bail Posting (1-2 hours) This step involves submitting the necessary documents and the bail amount to the court, guaranteeing the defendant's appearance at all future court hearings. The time it takes to post bail can vary depending on the court's procedures and hours of operation.
Best-case scenario: Release within 30 minutes to 2 hours after posting bail during regular business hours. More typical scenario: Release within 4-8 hours, especially during off-peak hours or weekends. Worst-case scenario: Release could be delayed for 24 hours or more in complex cases or due to logistical hurdles.
Bail information is considered public record in the State of California, meaning that anyone (not only defendants themselves) can request this info. The details can be accessed via the Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system or the Criminal Intake Section.

Paying Cash Bail to the Court 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.
The defendant can post their own bail or ask a family member or friend to post it. If the defendant uses a bond company, the company may require the defendant to have a co-signer (someone who will help the company find the defendant should they fail to appear).
Companies can issue bonds, but most bonds are issued by governments.
