Important Info. on Bail Release Orders.

On 9-26 -05 George Steimel reports:

St. Bernard bail office may be open today in Baton Rouge. I will survey this today and let you all know the details.

In every case where the inmate is considering release by reason of bail, cash or surety. The DOC is running these people and will not release them if they have a hold by probation or an outstanding warrant. DOC is running them only after they have posted the bond. These bonds fees and premiums are not returnable so the inmate or family members need to be sure there is no problem with these issues before considering posting bonds.

Also, if John Doe was arrested and he gave an alias of John Smith there is little hope that this person can be bailed out. If someone attempts to bond this person out under the alias it's considered fraud and will result in a serious dilemma for the inmate and the person posting the bond.
