How bail is set after a Statesville arrest
After booking, the person goes before a magistrate, usually within a few hours. The magistrate reads the charge and sets conditions of release. For most charges that means a secured bond, a dollar amount that must be posted before release. Some people get an unsecured bond or a written promise to appear and walk out without paying. Domestic violence charges are different: a judge, not a magistrate, must set conditions, which can take up to 48 hours. Domestic violence bail bonds.
Once a secured bond is set, you have two choices. Pay the full amount in cash to the court, or hire a bondsman and pay a premium of up to 15 percent. Champion posts the full bond with the jail on your behalf.

- Written promise to appear. Release on a signature alone.
- Appearance bond is the general term for any bond guaranteeing court appearance.
