Types of Warrants That May Require Warrant Bail Bonds
The type of warrant determines whether a bond is available and how the process works.
Bench Warrants
A bench warrant is issued by a judge, most often when someone misses a court date or fails to pay court fines. Many bench warrants have a bond amount set, making warrant bail bonds an option.
Arrest Warrants
An arrest warrant is issued when a judge finds probable cause that a person committed a crime. Some arrest warrants list a bond amount that can be covered by warrant bail bonds.
Failure to Appear Warrants
When a defendant misses court while out on bail, a failure to appear warrant may be issued. Resolving it quickly can help prevent forfeiture of the original bond.
Probation Violation Warrants
Warrants for alleged probation violations may or may not be bondable, depending on the court's order.
The Warrant Bail Bonds Process
Warrant bail bonds allow you to prepare in advance so release can happen soon after surrender.
01
Confirming the Warrant and Bond Amount
We confirm the type of warrant, the issuing court, and whether a bond amount has been set.
02
Completing Paperwork in Advance
The co-signer signs the warrant bail bonds agreement and pays the premium before surrender, which reduces time spent in custody.
03
Walk-Through Surrender
The person with the warrant turns themselves in at the Coal County Jail. After booking, the prepared bond is posted and release processing begins.
04
New Court Date
After release, the defendant receives a new court date. Attending this date is essential to keeping the bond in good standing.
Why Resolving a Warrant Matters
Warrants do not expire on their own, and ignoring them can create larger problems.
Avoiding Unexpected Arrest
An active warrant can lead to arrest during a traffic stop, at work, or at home, often at an inconvenient time.
Reducing Additional Consequences
Voluntarily addressing a warrant through warrant bail bonds may be viewed more favorably than being arrested on it, though outcomes are always up to the court.
Protecting an Existing Bond
If a failure to appear warrant is tied to an existing bond, quick action can help prevent forfeiture.
