Bail & Bail Bondsmen – How To Get Out of Jail

Obviously, once you’re incarcerated, your only thought is about when and how you will get out. After you’ve gone through the booking process, your bail is determined either by bail schedule or magistrate. If you don’t get a bail set this may mean that you will either get released, pending trial, or you don’t get released while you wait for your court date.

If you are released you must agree to be there for your court date, and you are not permitted to go out of town.

Typically, prisoners will be given time off in exchange for good behavior when they respect the rules and act right while they’re in jail.

If you follow the rules, you might be allowed to do work release. You will be required to go back to jail each day when you’re finished working, or you may get to live in a halfway house instead of jail.

Bail

Bail is the amount of money that you have to pay to be released from jail until your court date. Your bail amount is determined by the seriousness of your crime. You will have to pay to the courts 10% of the amount that was set in order for you to get discharged from jail. If you miss court, that person will lose that money.

Find Out How Much Someone’s Bail Is

You have to call the jail. If know the pertinent information, like name, address and date of birth, they will be able to let you know the bail amount. You can also see the bail amount on the jail website.

How To Bail Someone Out of Jail

Bailing out of jail is never fun, but in some cases, its very simple to do. To start with, you need to know if their bail is a Cash Only Bond. If so, you can’t use the services of a bail bondsman. They only accept cash at the jail, so you have to take cash – the jail can’t accept a personal check. As soon as you’ve paid the bail bond, the prisoner will be released to your care. If the conditions of bail are not violated, you will get this money back.

Bail Bondsman

If their bail has been set too high, or you just don’t have the money, you should look into the services of a bail bondsman. They generally charge you a fee of 10 to 15 percent of the total amount of bail set, and in most cases with a minimum charge of $100. The amount you pay to the bondsman is non-refundable and is typically cash only. If the bail has been set really high, the bail bondsman will in most cases require that they use your assets, such as home, property or cars, as collateral in addition to the fee they charge.

Discharge Procedures

When you pay your bail, you will get discharged from jail. Getting discharged can take between 15 minutes to all day long. In simple terms, the quicker you post bail, the sooner you will get discharged. Also, how fast you get released might depend on whether or not you have a cash bond or if a magistrate still needs to decide on your bail amount. For a minor offense, you will get booked and then released on your recognizance without having to pay bail. If you have served a sentence in jail and know the release date, plan to get discharged at any time that day – but usually in the morning.

How To Turn Yourself In

A record check will be run, and if they verify that you have one, you will be taken into jail custody. If it is for a jail sentence, go to the jail on the date and time that the sentence order states. Make sure that you get don’t get there late, or they may decide to arrest you. Make sure that you only bring required items with you, like your driver’s license or even your ID, prescription medication, and the sentencing order from court.

Visitation Procedures

    Life In Jail / What Its Like

    Daily Life

    Just the thought of getting locked up in Greer County Jail is quite unpleasant, eventually you will get accustomed to the routine that is set for you in jail. Prisoners get a wake-up alarm each morning at 6:00 AM, and next they’ll do roll call. Next, you will have breakfast. When you finish breakfast you will have to work in the work program that you’ve been assigned to. This could be working in the kitchen, laundry, or some sort of manufacturing job. While this may seem tedious, it may help you when you leave jail, as you are gaining experience in a certain field of work. Other inmates go to school, while some take part in mandated treatment programs. After lunch, there will be another roll call, then back to work. Your evening will be spent either in your cell or a common room. During this time dinner is served and you will be expected to take a shower. After another roll call, it’s lights out. Even though you will be confined to your cell, there may be enough light to read or write letters. Then again, most inmates welcome lights out, and try to get as much sleep as they can.

    Most people are frightened at the idea of jail because they don’t know what to expect. If you have spent any time in Greer County Jail, your experiences would be welcomed, if it can help another person to deal with it.

    Dress Code

    When incarcerated, all inmates are expected to wear the Greer County Jail uniform. This is normally a jumpsuit or scrubs. Of note to anyone visiting an inmate – you must be properly dressed. Any clothing considered inappropriate will not be permitted.

    How To Send Money to an Inmate

    You will have your own ‘bank account’ while in jail. This money is used to purchase items from the Commissary. Family and friends can deposit money into this account for you, and any money you earn while in prison will also be deposited into your account. Outside money can be paid in to your account via a money order, cash or check. If someone sends a check or money order, make sure that they write your inmate ID on it. The maximum amount you are allowed in your account is $290 per month.

    The procedure to send money to inmates changes, so you should check the the Greer County Jail website before you send funds to an inmate.

    Commissary

    The commissary is the jail store. You can purchase a number of things here, such as toiletries, snacks and writing supplies. Bear in mind that you will probably want to use the commissary daily, and any infractions will get that privilege taken away from you.

    Inmate Medications

    If you are on any type of prescription medication, you will be allowed to continue taking it while in jail. When you are first processed, you will be asked what medication you take. You will then be referred to the jail nurse or doctor who will be in charge of monitoring your health and prescribing your medication.

    Meals

    You will get three meals a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner. As expected, they are very basic, but healthy. A typical breakfast might be cereal, toast, coffee and fruit. Lunch might be spaghetti, salad, bread and milk. Dinner could be chicken casserole, rice, vegetables, dessert and milk. Contrary to popular belief, prison food has greatly improved over the years, and you might find that it’s not much different from what you would eat at home.

    Pods / The Yard

    The jail is designed in a ‘pod’ layout, with self-contained housing arranged around an outdoor yard. Each pod has a central control station and a common room, and the inmates take turns in using the yard. The jail is designed this way to keep certain inmates together, and others away from the general population.

    Gangs

    As with life in general, gangs are a part of prison life. Obviously it is best to avoid becoming a part of this environment as it will only lead to trouble. When you first enter prison, you might find yourself being ‘primed’ to join a gang, or worse, you might get their attention in a negative way. The best thing to do is keep your head down and don’t get involved.
