What is Bail?
This is a good place to start when asking how bail bonds work. After all, “what is bail” and “what is a bail bond” are questions you certainly don’t want to be asking behind bars.
Bail is a financial arrangement that a bail bonding agency will make on behalf of a criminal defendant. The purpose of the bail system is to guarantee the appearance of a criminal defendant in court. A bail bonding agency, like Frank S. Calabretta’s Bail Bonds Roseville, can arrange to have a suspect released from jail pending the trial in exchange for money or collateral, which may be cash, assets, or a bond. The court sets the monetary value of the bail and the bail bond agency can pay the amount in full or a percentage upfront and the rest at the arraignment. A bail bond, therefore, is a surety that the full bail amount will be paid if the criminal defendant does not appear in court on a set date. This is enough for many people to be sure to arrive on time for their court hearings.

The Bail Bond Process
Arrest and Booking: Pre Bail Services
When someone is arrested on suspicion of a crime, that person will be taken to jail for booking. The suspect will be searched for any weapons, have a mug shot taken, he or she will be fingerprinted, and asked for a statement. The suspect’s personal belongings are cataloged and retained and from that point, the suspect has no access to money, credit cards, or cell phones.
The booking process has many steps and can take anywhere from an hour to a few hours to complete. This often depends on the size of the jail and how busy the jail is. The booking process mostly consists of a background check, warrant check, and updating the computer system with the criminal charge and suspect information. Once the criminal defendant or suspect is “processed in” he or she is taken to a cell. This is usually when that infamous “one call” is given to the defendant and it is at this time he or she can request bail services directly from a bail bond agency or ask friends or family to pull together what is needed to post bail.
Acquiring a Bail Bond
- A Bail Bond Application
- A Bail Indemnity Agreement
- A Receipt
Once the bail bond paperwork is finalized, a licensed bail bond agent will “post” the bail bond at the appropriate detention facility or jail that will result in the release of the defendant. From the time a customer first calls into a bail bond company for bail services to the release of the defendant, there is a wait time anywhere between about 20 minutes to two hours so the process of acquiring a bail bond is usually fairly quick. The quicker the better is what most bailees prefer. The experienced bail bonds agents at Frank S. Calabretta’s Bail Bonds Roseville do their best to get all the paperwork processed and finalized in a timely manner.
What Happens if the Bailee is a No-Show in Court?
If you are purchasing a bail bond on someone else’s behalf, always understand your bail bond contract responsibility. The bail bond company may call upon the co-signer to help locate and detain the individual who missed their court appearance under their bail bond. All parties have a financial responsibility under the bail bond to make sure the bailee succeeds at appearing for all of their court appearances under their bail bond contract.
Be Wary of “Too Good to be True” Bail Bonds

When a Bail Bond is Not an Option
There are instances when bail bonds are not available to citizens. You can only make a bond and be released from jail if you have no other holds or detainers. A detainer or hold is placed on a criminal defendant by another governmental agency which requires the defendant to be held pending clearance of the hold.
For example, there may be a warrant placed against an inmate for pending charges from another jurisdiction or even state. Or if a criminal defendant has several unpaid traffic tickets, he or she may be held in jail until they are paid off in monetary or jail time. If the criminal defendant cannot make a bond or does not qualify for pretrial release, he or she remains in jail while the case is pending.
