You will almost all of your bail bonds money back, minus very small court fees, which are usually between $60 to $300) if you had paid the money directly to the court.

If You Paid Money To A Bondsman

If you had to go through a bail bonds agency, that means you paid a service fee of 10% to the bondsman of the total amount of your bond.
