HOW IT WORKS in Syracuse & CNY
When a person is arrested, the judge may set bail and bond for the case.
CASH BAIL
If you pay the cash bail, you pay the full amount. You will get all of this money back in several months, minus fines and court surcharges, as long as all court appearances are made as dictated by the court. It will likely be several months before you get your money back.
BAIL BONDs
With a bail bonds you pay a premium of approximately 10% of the bond amount. Think of this as a type of insurance policy. You are signing a contract that promises the defendant will appear at all court dates. YOU DO NOT GET THIS MONEY BACK. Also, If the defendant misses court for any reason, you will owe the full amount of the bond. As long as the defendant appears at all court dates, you will owe nothing more. If you are not confident that the defendant will take this seriously, you should re-consider taking on this responsibility.
THE COST
The following premiums (cost of a bond) are set by the New York State Department of Insurance. This premium is the only fee a bondsman can LEGALLY charge you. CHARGING ADDITIONAL FEES FOR TRAVEL, FILING, OR ANYTHING ELSE IS ILLEGAL. Other bondmen may ask you to pay additional fees, NEVER pay any amount other than listed below. Per New York State statute, the cost of the bond is calculated as follows: a bond up to $3,000 is 10%, any amount between $3,000 and $10,000 is an additional 8%, any amount above $10,000 is an additional 6%. The larger the bond is, the less of a percentage you will pay. It is a complicated formula, but the typical bond amounts and costs for each are listed below.
