First you will have to answer a number of questions, such as what is your full legal name, your address, birth date and an emergency contact person, and they’ll also ask you about your mental and medical history. Next, you will be issued an inmate number and your fingerprints will be taken. Then, all of your personal property will be taken away from you and stored until you are released.

Discharge Procedures

In other words the faster bail is posted, the quicker you will be freed. Also, how fast you get released will depend on whether you’ve been given a cash bond amount or if the magistrate must decide on the amount of bail to be set. For lesser charges, you will simply be booked and get released without having to post bail. When you have served your sentence and are given a release date, you should plan to get discharged between 9am and noon.
