States left out
Bail bond businesses don't work in these states, because the law there bans them or no longer uses them, so this site has no pages or search for them. Here is why, with where we read it.
Illinois
Illinois took paid bail bondsmen out of its courts with its 1963 bail law, and on September 18, 2023 it stopped requiring money bail at all.
Kentucky
Kentucky law has made it unlawful to run a bail bond business, or to post bail for pay, since 1976.
Massachusetts
Massachusetts law says no surety may be paid for acting as one, so paid bail bond businesses do not exist there.
Maine
Maine has no commercial bail bond businesses. Its law lets a court take a bond from a licensed surety company, but bail is set and taken by bail commissioners.
Nebraska
Nebraska courts say bail bondsmen are not used in the state. A judge can instead let a defendant out on payment of 10 percent of the bond.
Oregon
Oregon abolished commercial bail bonds in 1973 and has used its own security release system since January 1, 1974.
Wisconsin
Wisconsin law says a surety for bail must be a person, not a company, and may not be paid for it.
