Larceny and Theft bail bonds

Is your loved one accused of larceny or theft? Though both of these terms are often seen as the same type of crime, this is not true. Larceny is essentially taking a possession that is someone else’s, while theft is taking something of someone else's, and using force to get it. Therefore, in many instances theft requires a little larger of a bail bond compared to larceny, since it is a little more serious. 

How Larceny and Theft Bonds Are Determined

Typically, many types of charges have a specific bail bond amount. However, there are also various factors that can increase a bail bond. Some of those factors include the value of what was stolen, if violence was involved, whether or not the suspect has a past criminal history, etc. Therefore, the amount for bail depends on the bail schedule, and any other extraneous factors (either about the case itself or the suspect's past) that the judge identifies to be significant. 

The Bail Process

The bail process does not require too much intervention from close family/friends of the suspect. All it takes is a call to a professional bail bonds company, like Budget Bail Bonds. Then, we collect all the information necessary about the suspect, give you the paperwork that you are required to sign, and submit that paperwork to the court. Once everything goes through, your loved one will be released from jail. He/she will be expected back in court for the day of their hearing.
