South Dakota Bail Bonds: How To Secure Them

In South Dakota, bail bonds can be purchased by individuals that are waiting for their next trial or court appearance once the judge at their arraignment determines if they qualify for bail as well as how much that bail will be. This amount of money tends to be costly and if the individual cannot afford to pay for it, they can call on a commercial bail bondsman to help them. Throughout South Dakota, bail bonds can be purchased through a bail bondsman at a lower cost.

When a criminal defendant must post bail to leave jail, they will be required to provide a bail bond. This is a bond that will not be cashed in unless the individual does not show up for his or her court appearances. This bond can be purchased at the jails of the city, state or county. This amount is usually quite high though. For individuals that can not afford to pay the cost, they can call on a bail bondsman or agent. These commercial agencies can provide the bail amount for the defendant at a charge of about ten percent.

This ten percent will need to be paid to the agent before the defendant can be released from jail. Most agents will take cash, check or credit cards. Some offer financing options such as three and six month payment terms. Some also offer the ability to place a lien, a mortgage like fee, to a home for larger amounts of bail. In some cases, the other 90% of the bail will need to be secured with collateral such as a home. In case the individual does skip bail, they will forfeit their assets to the bail bonding agent.

Bonding agents can be found throughout the state to service individual needs. In most cases, they can be called on at any time of the day or night, seven days a week. They can usually help an individual to leave their holding situation rather quickly as well. In larger facilities it may take slightly longer.
