Bail is core part of the criminal justice system. It is built on the concept that a person is innocent until proven guilty. It is also a practical way to prevent overcrowding in jails. There is normally a long delay between the time someone is charged with an offence or crime, and the date the actual trial will take place. Unless the crime is exceptionally serious, it would be unfair and unjust to keep an accused in custody for a lengthy period without trial.
Bail is the system that enables an accused to remain free pending trial. Bail is generally set in relation to the crime or charge. The more serious the offence, the higher the bail. Generally bail is set at an amount that will make it unlikely that the accused will skip bail.
In most cases a judge will determine the amount of bail. In most instances courts have set amounts for specific offences. In most cases bail will be granted. However, if the judge thinks there is a reasonable flight risk or a danger to the community. People with string ties to the community are normally not considered flight risks.
After bail is set a defendant or surety can post bail with the clerk of the court or after hours at a county jail. A receipt will be issued, and the accused will be set free. If the accused does not return to court, the court will set a bail forfeiture hearing and issue a warrant of arrest.
