MADERA POLICE DEPARTMENT

Madera is the county seat for the County of Madera. The city’s logo shows a palm tree and a pine tree to symbolize that Madera marks the dividing line between Northern and Southern California. The Madera Police Department is led by the Chief of Police supported by two division commanders – Operations Division and Administrative Services.

The Patrol, Major Investigations and Detectives units are responsible for the day-to-day activities of community protection and service.

The Madera Police Department is committed to community oriented policing. This means that there is a partnership between the community and the department. The patrol officer is usually the first responder to a citizen’s call for service.

Each patrol officer is assigned to a beat and this helps to establish a close connection to the community.

HOW BAIL IS SET

When someone is arrested and taken into custody, the arresting agency will rely on the Madera County bail schedule to determine the amount of bail. If the individual is realeased on bail, they are expected to return to court whenever required to complete all hearings and procedures in their case.

The court may release an accused person on their own recognizance without having to pay bail. This is usually the case with less serious crimes or misdemeanors.

In more serious cases or felonies, the accused has to pay a significant amount of money in bail to motivate them to return for all required court proceedings. The court usually has an established bail schedule for routine cases but the court can set higher amounts of bail in situations that do not fit the bail schedule.

AFFORDABLE BAIL BONDS

Anyone can pay the bail for an accused person but if payment cannot be made in full from private resources the accused can turn to a bail bondsman.

The cost of a bail bond is set by law in each state. In California, the cost of a bail bond is 10% of the full amount of the bail set by the court.  For example if the bail is set at $20,000, then the fee will be $2,000.

Even 10% of the bail amount may be more than anyone can afford, that is why 888 Bail Bond offers multiple bail payment options and creative solutions for paying for a bail bond.  We accept payment from all major credit cards as well as cash.

In most cases we are able to develop a payment plan that meets our client’s capabilities for those that qualify.

There are no additional fees for financing and we work out an affordable payment plan to fit your individual needs. We often offer no collateral bail bonds for those who qualify. We also accept multiple cosigners in some situations.
