Booking and Processing in Simi Valley
Those who are arrested in Simi Valley are taken to the Simi Valley police station for booking and processing.
This is the procedure in which photographs and fingerprints are taken and a background check is conducted. Upon completion of this procedure, bail is set for those who are eligible. If an inmate is not eligible, or a bail bond is not acquired in a timely manner, defendants are often transferred to Ventura County Jail to await their court date.
The Bail Bond Process
Thanks to advances in technology, it is no longer required that one must appear personally at a bail bondsman’s office or at the jail to post bail for an inmate. We at SCV Bail Bonds can quickly and easily get the bail bond application process started over the phone, and even by fax or email.
It is our commitment to make this process as easy and stress-free as possible, and we can even meet you at your home or the jail – whatever is more convenient for you.
The Cost of a Bail Bond
Bail is set pursuant to each individual county’s bail schedule. The amount will vary depending on the number and severity of the crime(s) a defendant is charged with, and their perceived risk of flight. In California, the cost of a bail bond is set at 10% of the total bail amount. So, if the total amount of bail is $15,000, then the cost of a bail bond will be $1,500.
Why Bail Someone Out?
More often than not, being arrested comes as a surprise and jail time can significantly interrupt one’s day to day life and activities. Bailing someone out will allow them to continue attending work or school, and allow them the time to make any necessary arrangements in their life, should they be expecting prolonged incarceration following a court date.
