Bondsmen have a standing security agreement with
local court officials, in which
they agree to post an irrevocable "blanket" bond, which will pay
the court if any defendant for whom the bondsman is responsible does not
appear. The bondsman usually has an arrangement with a bank or another
credit provider to draw on such security, even during hours when the bank
is not operating. This eliminates the need for the bondsman to deposit
cash or property with the court every time a new defendant is bailed out.
Bondsmen generally charge a fee of 10% of the total amount of the bail
required in order to post a bond for the amount. This fee is not
refundable and represents the bondsman's compensation for his or her
services. As the practice of paying a 10% cash premium for a bond became
widespread, some courts have recently instituted a practice of accepting
10% of the bond amount in cash, for example, by requiring a $10,000 bond
or $1,000 in cash.

In jurisdictions where the 10% cash alternative is available, the
deposit is usually returned if the case is concluded without violation
of the conditions of bail. This has the effect of giving the defendant
or persons giving security for the defendant a substantial incentive
to make the cash deposit rather than using a bail bondsman. |
