FAQ

The bail hearing process in Texas typically begins shortly after the defendant's arrest. The defendant is brought before a judge, usually within 48 hours, for an initial appearance. At this appearance, the judge informs the defendant of the charges and their rights, and sets a date for the bail hearing.

Filling out paperwork usually takes around 30 minutes, but posting the bond must await the arrestee being booked. After the bond is posted, there is also a sometimes lengthy release process. If the jail is busy, the bail bonds process typically takes anywhere between 3 and 24 hours.
