FAQ

You apply for a Peace Bond by filing a Peace Bond Complaint and Statement of Offense by Complaining Party with the Justice of the Peace in your precinct. If the crime has already happened, a criminal complaint should be filed with the police or sheriff, instead of a Peace Bond.

A Peace Bond is issued by a Magistrate and requires an individual (who is not a household or family member) to post a bond conditioned that the individual will not commit a specific act of harm for a period of one year.

A peace bond is a court order that requires a person to keep the peace with another person. This order is often granted in place of criminal charges, allowing a person who has been accused of threatening behavior to stay out of jail.

Is Crime the Same as Fidelity? No, crime and fidelity are not the same, although they are closely related. Fidelity bonds specifically protect a business from losses caused by fraudulent acts committed by its employees.

Reimbursement vs. Indemnity: Surety bonds provide reimbursement to the oblige (typically the owner of the job) by the surety, whereas crime insurance policies indemnify the insured for direct losses incurred due to covered criminal acts.

If you can't make bail in Texas, you will stay in jail until you have served your sentence in full, have completely beaten your case through a not guilty verdict or dismissal, or until you are released on probation. To finally resolve a case, it can take anywhere from a few months to a few years.

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.
