Officials with the Superior Court of California County of Los Angeles have recently released the Los Angeles County 2015 Bail Schedule.

The bail schedule is revised and released every year.

The purpose of this bail schedule is to fix an amount upon which a person who is arrested without a warrant may be released from custody prior to appearance in court, according to the document. 

When a suspect is arrested, the arresting officer books the suspect under one of the penal codes.

For example, if you are arrested on a kidnapping charge, the amount would be at least $100,000.

If you wanted to get out of jail, you would pay the jail or courts $100,000 cash or cashiers check. If you cannot afford that, you would go to a bail bonds agency, like All American Bail Bonds in Santa Clarita, and pay them the 10 percent, in this case $10,000 over a period of time with collateral and they put up the $100,000 for you.

“Many times, it’s best to go to a bail bonds agency because it’s hard to pay $1,000 or even $100,000 outright,” said Inessa Chavez, vice-president of All American Bail Bonds in Santa Clarita. “Bail bonds agents also know all of the in’s and out’s of the courts and bail business.”

The bail schedule covers felonies and misdemeanors and is updated annually.

“The Los Angeles County Bail Schedule is an important tool for law enforcement, court officials and bail agents,” Chavez said. “At All American Bail Bonds in Santa Clarita, we use the bail schedule all of the time.”
