Legal Question in Constitutional Law in Georgia

While I was in jail for a charge I received a Deposit Account Fraud Citation from the Magistrate Court telling me that I had to either pay the fine which was equal to the amount on the citation and cash bond or do 12 months, I wasn't given the chance to even enter a plea, is that legal? Then there was another time when I went before the magistrate court judge and entered a plea of Not Guilty for the Misdemeanor but had to bond out on the charge which was equal to the amount of the fine and still didn't get a chance to go against the plaintiff to get my money back, is that legal? Please help me out cause i'm really lost on this one.
