Robbery Bail Bonds
Robbery Bail Bonds
Robbery charges are similar to a larceny charge because they both involve taking someone else’s money or property. The difference is that robbery charges involve the use of force or intimidating the victim until they give you what you want. Robbery charges are more serious of the two because it involves the use of force against the victim.
When you commit robbery, you are taking the money or property from someone else without their permission. The commission of robbery also involves you using force or you threaten to use force in order to get what you want from your victim. When you commit robbery, you are taking things from the victim without planning on giving it back, the owner of the property did not give you their permission to take the property or you forced your victim to give it to you. An example of robbery would be you and a friend of yours robbed a bank in the area where you live. You had weapons and you threatened the bank tellers or manager to give you the money from the bank. This involves all of the things that will make you receive a robbery charge. There is force, taking of property that did not belong to you and you had the intent to rob the bank of the money.

If you, a friend or a loved one has been arrested for robbery, there is a process you will go through after you are put in handcuffs and placed into the back of a police car. You will be taken to the local police station and put into the system there. They will put all of your personal information which includes your name, date of birth, your address, your height, your weight, take your fingerprints and sometimes they will take your mugshot. They will also in put the crime for which you were arrested for. They will then transport you to the booking room at the local jail. You will be processed into the local jail and wait to see a judge. Seeing a judge will usually happen the next day or the same day if you are arrested in the early hours. The judge will decide your fate from there. He or she will look at many factors that can influence their decision. They check to see if you are a flight risk, if you have ties to the local community, if you are employed, how long have you been employed at your current job and if you have had any previous felonies or robbery charges. The judge that presides over your case will either sentence you to probation, send you to prison or release you on a bail bond in the amount of their choosing.
