From an East San Jose Arrest to Release
- Initial booking: After an East Side arrest, the person is usually booked at the Santa Clara County Main Jail downtown. Some are later moved to Elmwood.
- Checking the bail: The bail amount is set from the county schedule or by a judge. The agent confirms it and checks which facility holds the defendant.
- Visit the Alum Rock office: Bring the defendant's information to the office or call ahead. The agent reviews costs and the co-signer's responsibilities.
- Bond paperwork: Once the co-signer signs and pays, the bond is delivered to the Main Jail or Elmwood for processing.
- Home and to court: After release, the defendant keeps every court date. Missed dates can lead to a warrant and liability for the full bail.
