Description

A bail bond is a bond provided by an insurance company through a bail bondsman acting as agent for the company, to allow an accused defendant to be released before trial. A bail bond is designed to ensure the appearance of the defendant in court at the scheduled time. Prior to the posting of a bail bond, the defendant or a co-signer must guarantee that they will pay the full amount of bail if the defendant does not appear in court. The bail bond company usually charges 10 percent of the amount of the bond and often requires the defendant to put up some collateral like a seconded of trust or mortgage on one's house.


When the case is concluded, the bail bond is "exonerated" and returned to the insurance company. If the defendant disappears and fails to appearing court (skips bail), the bond money will be forfeited unless the defendants found and returned. The bond may be forfeited, by order of the court, upon the partys failure to appear or to comply with the conditions of the bond. If the defendant is located and arrested by the bail agent the cosigner is responsible for all expenses the bail agent incurs while looking for the defendant.

FAQ

There are four main types of DUI charges under Arizona law. In order of severity (from least to most severe), these are: (i) DUI, (ii) extreme DUI, (iii) super extreme DUI, and (iv) aggravated DUI.

Felony DUI Charges Will Incur Higher Bonds Other people do get bonds, for whatever reason, and usually those are in $1200 to $2500 range.

Arizona DUI penalties for a standard DUI offense are severe, even for first-time offenders. A first-time DUI conviction mandates a jail sentence of 10 days, which is a clear demonstration of the state's tough stance on impaired driving. Additionally, offenders are subject to a minimum fine of approximately $1,250.

Best Case. If you have been pulled over for allegedly driving under the influence, the best-case scenario you could hope for is that the officer(s) failed to gather enough evidence against you or made procedural, technical, or constitutional mistakes before, during or following your arrest.

The time it takes to receive DUI blood test results can vary significantly based on several factors, including the laboratory's workload and the specific nature of the test being conducted. Generally, the results are available within a few days to a week after the sample is collected.

Probation: In some cases, a judge may impose probation instead of jail time, requiring the offender to comply with certain conditions, such as attending counseling or treatment programs, abstaining from alcohol consumption, and regularly reporting to a probation officer.

For example, a first-time misdemeanor DUI offense might involve a relatively modest bail setting of $5,000–$10,000 dollars, while a felony DUI may prescribe a $100,000 bail setting, pursuant to the local bail schedule.

Municipal or City courts have criminal jurisdiction over misdemeanor crimes. Municipal or City courts hear misdemeanor cases such as DUI (Driving under the influence of alcohol); hit-and-run and reckless driving as long as no injuries were involved.

DUI Process- How long will my case take? Arizona Misdemeanor DUI cases can take 2 months to over 1 year to resolve. Several factors can affect that time period.

A typical first-time DUI case will probably take between two and six months to conclude, depending on the complexity of the case and the schedule of the attorney.
