How do I post bail?


If you are in jail and you want to post your own bail, you will need to have someone on the outside place sufficient funds in your inmate account. The jail will bring you the paperwork you need to sign, promising you will show up for your court date(s). 

If the jail requires someone else post the bail for you, have them call to find out the exact procedure. Every jail has different systems.
