FAQ
So, what authority do bail bond agents have? Bail bond agents can carry firearms (like regular citizens) and make arrests in California. However, they do not have the same power as police officers to investigate crimes, enforce traffic laws, or cordon off specific areas.
A person charged with an offense should look very carefully at their Virginia paperwork to see if they are allowed to leave the Commonwealth of Virginia as an affirming condition of their bond. It is not uncommon for someone to be prohibited from leaving the state during the pendency of a felony case.
It is usually very possible to bail someone out from another state. However, the process is more complicated than with regular bail bonds.
Even when operating across state lines, bail bond agencies must adhere to the local laws and regulations of each state. This includes differences in the amount of bail, conditions for release, and the procedures for posting bail.
Travel Restrictions. Defendants out on bond are often required to remain within a certain geographic area, usually within the state or county where the case is being prosecuted. Travel outside of this area is typically prohibited unless explicitly permitted by the court.
Some states don't allow bounty hunters to be there, so if you go there to pick somebody up, you're breaking the law just by picking that person up in that state. It is legal to cross the line as long as you're in a state that allows you to be a bail bondsman.
Leaving California on Bail with a Bond Posting bail via a bondsman doesn't impact the travel limitations of your bail agreement. However, you should still inform the bail bondsman about your travel plans as they are currently responsible for your court appearances and the finances used to secure your freedom.
Virginia Code Section 19.2-120 states that a person pending a trial or hearing, shall be admitted to bail, unless there is reason to believe: They will not appear for trial. They are an unreasonable danger to himself/ herself. They would constitute an unreasonable danger to the public.
