Article I, section 7 says: “All persons before conviction shall be bailable by sufficient sureties, except for capital offenses when the proof is evident or the presumption great.” Minnesota no longer has the death penalty, so all defendants have a right to have bail set.
Currently, eight states do not have a bail bond system: Illinois, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Nebraska, Oregon, Washington D. C., and Wisconsin. Illinois not only bans bail bond agents, but attorneys and some state employees are not permitted to post bail for defendants either.
Attend All Court Hearings: This is the most critical condition of bail. Missing a single court date can lead to a bench warrant being issued for your arrest, and you'll forfeit your bail. Live Lawfully: Avoid any criminal activity, even minor offenses.
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.
