Because Passaic County and New Jersey can change their bail bond procedures, it is always best to call either the Passaic County Jail at 973-881-4620, or the court in the jurisdiction (i.e. Municipal Court, District Court, etc.) where the offender was charged, and do this right after an arrestee has been booked.
Ask the staff at the Passaic County Jail or the Passaic County Court Clerk these specific questions:
If you feel the bail is too high and you wish to get it reduced, contact a lawyer or the defendant's public defender and get them to look into what they can do to get a bail reduction. The sooner you get working on this the quicker you will get your loved one released.
This entire process will go smoother and faster with a criminal attorney or bail agent handling it for you.
Check with Passaic County Jail by calling 973-881-4620 prior to paying a bond online as this is being rolled out to different facilities slowly.
