Professional Bail Bond Services in Hartford, CT
The arrest process is simple. An individual is arrested with the notion that he/she committed a crime. That person is then taken to the police station, where the arrest is properly denoted and the suspect gets their fingerprint taken. That individual will then get a phone call, and will usually call a loved one or their lawyer. From here, someone will call a bail bondsman, and that individual will help get the suspect released from custody until trial. It is expected that the suspect will return to trial. But what if they don’t?

How Is a Failure To Appear Bail Bond Determined?
Failing to appear in court is a serious matter. This is because the suspect already has charges on them, which is why they need to be in court in the first place. When a suspect fails to come to court, the charges can begin to pile up, and the situation can begin to look worse and worse. In addition, when an individual “skips” trial multiple times, many bail bondsmen will not want to work with that suspect, since they are a “flight risk”. If your loved one has failed to appear at court, the bond amount will depend on the following factors:
- How old is this individual? Suspects who are under the age of 18 are typically tried as a minor, which means a smaller bail bond. However, a judge can decide to try a minor as an adult if the case was very severe.
- Why were they arrested in the first place? The more severe the charge, the more serious it is that the suspect skipped court. This will result in a higher bail bond.
- What is their past record? If this individual has been known to skip court dates in the past, this can also result in an increased bail.
The Steps for Posting Bail
When posting bail for a failure to appear charge, it is the same process as other bail bonds. However, a loved one may have trouble finding a professional bondsman to help with the process if the suspect is known to skip trial. Below outlines the steps a loved one must take in order to post bail for a suspect with a failure to appear charge:
- Find a professional bondsman.
- Fill out the appropriate forms (the defendant authorization form, a payment contract, and a credit card payment contract).
- The suspect will be let go.
Boricua Bail Bonds Will Set Your Loved One Free
Failure to appear is a common charge that can make the situation worse. Fortunately, if the suspect has a legitimate reason for missing his/her court date, they may not be penalized. In addition, any individual with a failure to appear charge can still try to post bail.
