Re: 7 criminal check warrants
Its not that easy to answer. You didn't say how much the checks were for. That makes a big difference as it would help determine if it was a misdemeanor or felony. If all of the checks are misdemeanors then your bond would probably be much less. If any of the checks amount to a felony, then the judge will consider several things such as age, family, whether you have any stong ties to the community such as employment or owning property. The judge will also consider your past criminal record if any. Its just hard to say what the bond will be with the little information you provided. As far as not doing jail, there are alternative programs that are possibly available.
