Posting Bond in a Michigan DUI Case

Michigan DUI - Posting Bond

Once bond is set in a Michigan DUI case, the next question is, how and who can post the bond?  Having set the bond, the arresting police department determines where it can be posted. Occasionally, the person posting bond goes to the county jail only to find that the jail has no instructions as to the amount of the bond. 

He or she must then travel to the original arresting police department, post the bond, and bring the bond receipt to the county jail to secure the release of the defendant. To avoid this unnecessary running around, an attorney can help obtain this onformation from the arresting agency where the bond is to be posted and advise the person posting the bond accordingly. It is important to note that the bond must be paid in cash. Checks and credit cards will not be accepted. An attorney is not allowed to post bond, but anyone else can.
