Theft bail bonds

Theft Bail Bonds in Riverside County

Theft covers a wide range, from petty theft and shoplifting to burglary and grand theft auto. Bail depends mostly on the value of the property involved and the person's record.

How bail usually works for theft cases

Every case is different, and the judge can move the number up or down from the county bail schedule based on the facts and the person's record. The points below reflect how these cases typically play out so you know what to expect before you call.

• Petty theft bail can start low, often in the hundreds, while grand theft can range into the tens of thousands.
• Burglary and commercial theft allegations raise the figure based on the alleged loss and any prior history.
• Repeat allegations can elevate what would otherwise be a low level charge.
• Property value is usually the deciding factor in where the bail lands.

Theft cases in Riverside County

Retail and vehicle theft cases move through every courthouse in the county, from Corona in the west to Indio in the desert, and the dollar value alleged is what separates a misdemeanor from a felony. Because so many theft bails are modest, a bond often costs a family less than a few nights of missed work would.
