Bail Bonds for Robbery Charges in Burbank
A robbery charge in Burbank brings questions about booking, bail and court. Start with the basics below.
Understanding a Robbery Arrest
A robbery charge generally involves taking property from a person by force or fear. The exact charge, and whether it is treated as a misdemeanor or a felony, varies with the facts and is decided by prosecutors and the court. This is a serious felony, and bail is generally high.
After a Robbery Arrest in Burbank
Arrests in Burbank are made by Burbank Police Department. Depending on the charge and the agency, a person may be held at Men's Central Jail or Twin Towers Correctional Facility. Criminal cases from the area are heard at Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center and Burbank Courthouse. For a robbery charge the first step is to get the inmate booking number and confirm the bail amount with the facility.
How Bail Is Set for Robbery Charges
Bail for a charge like this usually comes from the county bail schedule at first. At a hearing a judge may raise, lower or keep that amount, and some charges must be reviewed by a judge before any release. The court sets bail, not the bondsperson.
Practical Tip for Families
Check with the court whether a judge must review release and when the first hearing is.
