How the Bail Bond Process Works in Kern County

1. Arrest and transport: A person is arrested and taken to a local facility for processing.
2. Booking: Personal information is recorded, fingerprints may be taken, and the case is entered into the system.
3. Bail is set: A bail amount may be set based on the charge and the situation.
4. Contact a bondsman: You call a bail bond agency to discuss options and requirements for Kern County bail bonds.
5. Paperwork and agreements: The co-signer completes an application and signs the required forms.
6. Bond is posted: The bail bond is arranged and submitted to the correct place for processing.
7. Release: After processing, the person may be released with instructions to appear in court as required.

Bail Bond Paperwork & Co-Signer Responsibilities

To start a bond, the co-signer typically completes an application and provides identification. Payment arrangements are also discussed so the bond can be processed as quickly as possible.

Most bail bond agreements include an indemnity agreement, which explains the co-signer’s responsibility for the bond. In general, the co-signer helps ensure the defendant makes all required court appearances and follows release conditions.

Collateral may be requested in some situations, but it is not always required. If collateral is needed, ask what forms may be accepted and when it would be returned, based on the bond’s completion and court requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a bail bond cost in Bakersfield?

The cost of a bail bond depends on the bail amount set for the case and the terms discussed with the agency. When you call, be ready to share the bail amount (if you have it) so you can get accurate pricing information. If you don’t know the bail amount yet, you can still ask what details are needed to provide an estimate.

How long does release usually take in Kern County?

Release time can vary based on where the person is being held, staffing, and how busy the facility is. Even after a bond is arranged, the jail or facility still has its own processing steps. Calling as soon as possible can help you understand what to expect for Kern County bail bonds timing.

What information should I have ready when I call a Bakersfield bail bondsman?

Helpful details include the person’s full name, date of birth, and where they are being held, plus a booking number if available. If you know the bail amount or charge information, that can also speed things up. If you don’t have all of this, call anyway—staff can tell you what to gather next.

When might collateral be required for a bail bond?

Collateral may be requested depending on the case details and the amount of bail. It is not automatically required for every bond. If collateral is needed, ask what options may be accepted and what must happen for it to be returned.

Can I arrange bail over the phone?

Yes, many steps can often be started over the phone, including getting information and discussing the paperwork needed. Call (661) 325-2245 to find out what can be handled remotely for your situation. Some documents or verification steps may still be required to complete the process.

What happens if someone misses court after being released on a bond?

Missing court can create serious problems, including additional court actions and potential consequences for the bond. The court may issue new orders and the defendant may be subject to being taken back into custody. If this happens, contact the bail agency right away to discuss the next steps and obligations.
