Arrested in Yucca Valley?

Hopefully, your time in Yucca Valley will be peaceful and without incident. However, should you find yourself coming into contact with law enforcement personnel in Yucca Valley, there are a few things to remember that will help you have a more positive experience.  When interacting with the police remember:

  • Stay Calm!
  • Don't struggle physically with the police, even if they feel they need to detain you.
  • Don't yell, or shout obscenities, at law enforcement or any other party.
  • Try to remain reasonable.
  • Conduct yourself in a way that will allow the police officers to see that your conduct has only been what was required by the situation. Even if you are still arrested, your good conduct will leave you in a better position to bargain for a reduction in charges at a later date. And, at the very least, you run less of a risk of doing something that will lead to increased charges, like assault on a police officer.

If you are arrested the arresting officer should inform you of your Miranda Rights:

  • You have the right to remain silent – They can't make you talk, other than to provide your name, address, and show some sort of identification, upon request.
  • Anything you say can be used against you – If you choose to talk to the authorities, the statements you make can be used against you in court.
  • You have the right to an attorney – You can ask to have an attorney present while they question you. If you ask for an attorney but continue to talk to the officers, while you wait for your attorney, the answers you give can still be used against you.
  • If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you – If you cannot afford an attorney, but would like to have one, the court will appoint an attorney for you, free of charge.

Bail in Yucca Valley

When a person is arrested and charged with a crime in Yucca Valley, there is an amount of bail set by the court that will allow that person to get out of jail while the legal process gets worked through. The process of working through criminal charges, from beginning to end, can be time-consuming. Most people do not want to sit in jail while the lawyers and judges work things out. They have work and families that need their attention. So the court set up the bail process, as a way of ensuring that if someone got out of jail, they would still show up for hearings and trial.

Bail money is deposited with the court and then returned to the defendant once the charges have been resolved. If someone else pays the bail on the defendant's behalf, the bail is returned to the person who paid it to the court. Property can also be used to pay for bail. But, if a property is used, the value of the property must be twice the amount of the bail being asked.

How Much Is Bail In Yucca Valley?

After a person has been booked in Yucca Valley, their bail will be set, based on the San Bernardino County Bail Schedule. The bail is determined by the crime for which a person has been arrested. If a person is able to pay the entire amount of their cash bail, they will be released, pending arraignment. Because most people don't have the money to post the entire amount of their bail, bail bonds are accepted in place of the cash bail amount.

To find out how much bail is required to get out of jail, a person should ask to see the Bail Schedule. There should be a copy of the county bail schedule posted at every jail facility, but if there isn't one available, you can locate it here

To Calculate Bail:

  • Begin with the primary charge. This is generally the charge that carries the highest possible jail time and bail amount.
  • Add all enhancements.
  • Add any special circumstances.

This total is the amount that will be required to bail a person out of jail. Bail can be paid in cash or cashier's check, or property can be used as a bond. If a property is used, however, the equity of the property must be quite a bit more than the amount of the bail.

Anyone can pay the bail for someone else to get out of jail. However, many people lack the cash funds to be able to just post bail out of pocket. This is where a bail bond company can be useful.

Can I Bail Someone Else Out Of Jail In Chino?

If you have the cash to pay someone's bail, you can pay it and they will be on their way. However, if you lack the cash to pay the bail in full, you can contact a bail bonds company to pay it for you. Mr. Nice Guy Bail Bonds is the number one bail bond company in Southern California, and they'll work hard to get you, your friend, or loved one out of jail as soon as possible. The amount that you pay a bail bond company, like Mr. Nice Guys Bail Bonds, is typically 10% of the total amount of the cash bail. By using a bail bond company, you can get out of jail for a fraction of the cost of paying full bail.

Once Mr. Nice Guy gets you out of jail, you are still obligated to show up to your court appearances and do what is required to see your charges through to the end. By asking Mr. Nice Guy to secure your bail bond, you are promising to do just that.

How Do I Get Bail Bonds in Yucca Valley?

If a person doesn't have the money on hand to just pay their bail (and most people don't), then you call a bail bondsman like Mr. Nice Guy Bail Bonds. A bail bondsman is a person who is licensed by the state and works with an agency to post bail for others. When a bond company pays the bail, it is underwritten by a type of insurance company called a Surety Company. The state of California and the individual Surety Company both regulate how bail bondsman can operate. He is required to charge a premium for the person for whom he is posting bond. Once a person has paid the premium, for themselves or another person, the bail bond company will then post the bail with the court so that the defendant can get out of jail.

Call Mr. Nice Guy Bail Bonds to get started with the bail bond process and get home to friends and family, as soon as possible. Call (844)400-BAIL (2245) to get out of jail fast. Have the inmates full name, birth date, and booking number when calling, for fastest service.
