Cash Bail is not financed through a Bail Bond Agent. In this case, the full amount of bail is due, to be paid by cash or by cashier's check to the facility where the defendant is being held. While this may be an option for anyone who has a large amount of cash available to commit to ensuring court appearances, this can also tie up checking and savings accounts - as court proceedings and a trial can take months or even years, in some instances.
In the case of Cash Bail being posted to secure a defendant's release, the money is held until the entire court process is finished and the defendant has shown up to all mandatory court appearances. Once the case is finished, the money will be returned, in full. However, if the defendant fails to appear, the money is subject to forfeiture.
In drug cases, the defendant must prove that the money used to post bail was not obtained illegally or through illegal means.
