Bond Information

What is a Bail Bond?

A bail bond is a financial guarantee that ensures that a person arrested for a crime will appear in court for their scheduled hearings. When a person is arrested, they are typically taken to jail and held until their trial date. However, a person can be released from jail before their trial if they post bail.

How to Post a Bond in Alpena County

To post a bond in Alpena County, you can contact a local bail bondsman. A bail bondsman will charge a fee for their services, which is typically a percentage of the bond amount.

Once you have contacted a bail bondsman, they will need the following information:

• The name of the person arrested
• The date and location of the arrest
• The charges against the person
• The amount of the bond

The bail bondsman will then post the bond with the court on your behalf. Once the bond is posted, the person arrested will be released from jail.

Important Notes

• If the person arrested fails to appear in court for their scheduled hearings, the court may issue a warrant for their arrest and the bail bond will be forfeited.
• If you are unable to afford to post bail, you may be eligible for a public defender. A public defender is a lawyer who is appointed by the court to represent people who cannot afford to hire their own attorney.
