Your 8th<\/sup> Amendment Rights <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

According to the Bill of Rights, our 8th<\/sup>\nAmendment gives us certain rights surrounding bail. Basically, it prohibits the\nfederal government from being unfair or callous to suspected criminals and\nconvicts. Specifically, it states, \u201cExcessive bail shall not be required, nor\nexcessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although your 8th<\/sup> amendment rights protects you\nagainst certain judicial injustices, there are still additional rules and\nrequirements for bail, set forth by the state. One such rule is referred to as Indiana\nBail Schedule. Each city, and county within, has their own bail schedule, which\ncan be confusing for many. This is why it is important to always consult with a\nlicensed and experienced bail bondsman who can provide accurate information regarding\nyour case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an example, review the current Marion County, Indiana Bail Schedule<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FELONY:<\/strong>
Murder = NO BOND
Habitual Offender = $50,000 Surety
Level 1 & 2 = $50,000 Surety
Level 3 & 4 = $20,000 Surety
Level 5 = $7,500 Surety
Domestic Violence: Level 5 Felony = $25,000 Surety
Level 6 = $2, 000 Cash Bond<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MISDEMEANOR:<\/strong>
Class A Misdemeanor = $1,000 Cash Bond
Class B Misdemeanor = $1,000 Cash Bond
Class C Misdemeanor = $250 Cash Bond<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bail Bond Costs and Contracts<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Bail bonds cost different amounts, depending on the state.\u00a0 Bail prices are mandated by law, and are not set by the bail bondsmen themselves. The standard rate in Indiana among bail bond companies is 10 to 15 percent of the full bond amount. For example, a $10,000 bond premium will cost $1,000 to $1,500 for a bail bond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A bail bond company takes a significant risk when bonding a person from jail and underwriting their bail. The company is basically \u201cfronting\u201d the money to the courts to get a defendant out of jail. If the person fails to appear for their scheduled court date, the bond company can lose that money. If the defendant shows, they get that money back. For this reason, bail bondsmen can refuse service to someone if they do not trust them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
