My friend or relative was arrested and charged with a crime in federal court in another city. Bond has been set and I would like to put up the money for the bond. Can I post his/her bond in the city in which I live?
|
|
As a general rule, cash bonds are normally posted in the United States District Court in the city in which the defendant's bond was set. However, it is a matter of discretion for any District Court to receipt bond money for a bond set in another district. The Financial Department of the U.S. District Clerk's Office in the District Court where you are seeking to deposit the bond money should be contacted for local procedures.
