individual to sign stating they will return on their appointed
court date and is not secured by any other means. |

Surety
Bond - a surety bond requires someone of the Judges
choosing to sign, most commonly a spouse or parent. But does
not require any money at the time of release, however the bond
does state a monetary amount and the signer assumes that burden
if the court date is missed. |

it but does not require money at the time of release, this bond
is much like a surety bond but can be signed by the person being
released. |
