Why do I need an ankle monitor?

There are a couple of reasons why you might be on an ankle monitor during your bail release:

• You might not have enough collateral to cover your bond

• You might be considered high risk due to a large bond

• The court may order you to wear an ankle monitor as a condition of your release

What happens if I don’t charge?

More than not, the bail agency will dispatch a recovery agent to pick you up and potentially surrender your bond.

What happens if I leave my area?

Your bail agent will be notified. He/she then has the option of having you picked up and returned to jail due to breach of release conditions.

How long do I have to wear it?

Usually until your bond has been exonerated by the court.

Discuss options with your bail agent.
