What are the bail options in Clayton County after an arrest?

Once arrested, an individual may be brought to Clayton County Jail in Jonesboro for processing. The next steps vary:

1. The individual may be released without paying bail and ordered to appear on a set date.
2. The individual could be held in jail until their hearing.
3. Posting bail or bond allows them to be released. Call 770-477-4400 to confirm the bail amount.

There are several ways to pay an individual’s bail.

• A cash bond is posted by paying the whole amount at the jail bonding window or the clerk's office with cash, a cashier's check or a money order, and many facilities also accept cards at a kiosk or through an online bond vendor for a fee; bring the inmate's full name and booking number, and the jail's line is 770-477-4400.
• Licensed bail bond agencies in Clayton County can provide assistance.
• Courts in many places accept real property, such as land or a house, as bond collateral when the owner documents clear title and equity of at least the bond amount, often double, with a deed and a recent tax or appraisal value, and the court that set bail approves.
