FAQ

In the state of North Carolina, there are four ways to get a person out of jail: post the bond yourself, use property for collateral in court, have a judge release the defendant on their own recognizance, or hire a licensed and insured bail bondsman.

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).

Most bond agreements include travel restrictions, confining you to a specific geographic area such as your county or state. These limitations are designed to ensure your availability for court dates. If travel is necessary, you must seek prior approval from the court or your bail bondsman.

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.

Under the new law, judges are now responsible for setting the terms and conditions of pretrial release for serious offenses. Judges will also conduct a criminal background check and a risk evaluation before deciding on your bond.

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.
