Weapons Charge Bail Questions
Why is a felon-in-possession charge treated so seriously?
It is a felony on its own, separate from whatever led to the original conviction, and it often carries a high bail amount along with mandatory minimum penalties if convicted.
Is carrying a concealed weapon without a permit a felony?
It is usually charged as a felony in Florida, though the exact charge and bail amount depend on the details, including the type of weapon and the person's criminal history.
What does Florida's 10-20-Life law have to do with bail?
That law sets mandatory minimum prison sentences for certain gun crimes if convicted. It does not set bail directly, but charges that fall under it are treated as serious by the court, which usually means a higher bail amount.
Does the type of weapon change the bail amount?
It can. A charge involving a firearm is generally treated more seriously than one involving another type of weapon, which often means a higher bail amount.
Do you offer payment plans for weapons charge bonds?
Yes. See our bail financing page for how payment plans work if you would rather not pay the 10% fee all at once.
