How the Bail Bond Process Works in Kern County

1. Arrest: A person is taken into custody by law enforcement.
2. Booking: The jail records personal information, fingerprints, and the alleged charges.
3. Bail is set: Bail may be set by a schedule or by a judge, depending on the situation.
4. Contact a bondsman: Call a Bakersfield bail bondsman to discuss options and requirements.
5. Complete paperwork: A co-signer (if needed) completes an application and signs the agreement.

Bail Bond Paperwork & Co-Signer Responsibilities

Starting a bail bond usually involves a basic application and verification. You may be asked for identification and a way to handle payment so the bond can be processed without delays.

The co-signer typically signs an indemnity agreement, which means they take responsibility for making sure the defendant follows court requirements and appears for all scheduled dates. If the defendant does not follow the terms, the co-signer may have financial obligations connected to the bond.

Collateral is not automatically required for every bond. In some cases, collateral may be requested based on the bail amount, the charges, or other risk factors, and it should be clearly explained before anything is signed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a bail bond cost in Bakersfield?

The cost of a bail bond is related to the total bail amount set for the case. The exact amount you pay can vary based on the situation and what is required to post the bond. Call (661) 326-0601 to discuss the specific bail amount and what options may apply.

How long does release usually take in Kern County?

Release time can vary based on the jail’s workload, staffing, and where the person is in the booking process. Even after a bond is posted, the facility still has steps to complete before release. For the most accurate expectations, it helps to have booking details when you call.

What information should I have ready when I call?

Have the defendant’s full legal name, date of birth, and where they are being held. If you know the booking number, bail amount, or charges, that can help speed up confirmation. If you don’t have everything, call anyway and share what you do know.

When might collateral be required?

Collateral may be requested in some situations depending on the bail amount and other case factors. It is not guaranteed for every bond, and requirements can differ from case to case. Always ask what is required and make sure you understand the terms before signing.

Can I arrange a bail bond over the phone?

In many cases, you can start the process over the phone by providing the needed booking information and completing initial steps. Additional paperwork or verification may still be required to finalize the bond. Calling first helps confirm what can be handled remotely and what needs to be completed next.

What happens if someone misses court?

Missing a court date can create serious problems and may lead to additional court actions. It can also affect the bail bond and the responsibilities of any co-signer. If a court date is missed, contact the court and your bail bonds company right away for general next-step guidance (not legal advice).
