Immigration Bail Bonds
It may sound silly to most people, because why would someone hear illegally not flea the area? They definitely don’t want to get deported or face jail time due to being here illegally. Immigrates are definitely considered to be a huge flight risk as many of them move around for work and they are hard to track down because they don’t have a social security number to link them to bank accounts or employment.
Since there is such a high risk for the bail bondsman representing immigrants, they often only accept cash. If the money can’t be raised the individual will have to remain in jail. If the money is raised it will not be returned until the entire court process has been completed. This can last more than a year in cases that are straight forward. It may be several years if the case is complicated or it continues to drag out in the court of law.
In many instances, the bail bondsman has a hard time tracking down the person responsible for posting the cash for an immigrant. This is because it could be another immigrant that is no longer in the area. The bail bondsman has a legal responsibility to attempt to contact such individuals but those attempts aren’t usually very successful.
If the immigration bail bondsman does accept collateral for the bond, they often require a set percentage of it to be in cash. This cash amount is a fee that won’t be refunded even after the immigrant has completed all of the required court proceedings. In most instances though this is a much more viable option for immigrants in this type of situation to be able to satisfy.
