Carbon County Bail Bonds FAQ

Call Bail City Bail Bonds at (307) 417-0132 or start the online application. We confirm the bond amount with the jail, qualify you as the signer, send e-sign documents to your phone, and our local agent posts the bond at Carbon County Detention Center in Rawlins. Most releases happen within a few hours of posting.

Rates are 10%–20% of the full bond amount, paid once as a non-refundable premium. A $5,000 bond is $500 to $1,000. Payment plans start as low as 1% down, major discounts can be applied with approved collateral, and collateral is not required in most cases. The rest of the bond is guaranteed by us to the court as long as the defendant appears at every hearing.

Once the bond is posted, release depends on how busy booking is. Most releases from Carbon County Detention Center happen within one to four hours. Weekends and holidays can take longer. Our agent stays in contact with the jail and keeps you updated until the person walks out.

Misdemeanors and initial appearances are heard in Carbon County Circuit Court at 415 W Pine St, Ste 2135, Rawlins, WY 82301. Felonies are bound over to 2nd Judicial District Court, which is part of the 2nd Judicial District of Wyoming, at 415 W Pine St, Rawlins, WY 82301 (P.O. Box 67, Rawlins, WY 82301). Bond can be set by either court, and for many charges the jail uses a bond schedule so bail can be posted before the first hearing.

A cash bond must be paid in full to the jail or court by the person posting it, and is returned at the end of the case minus any fees or fines. A surety bond is posted by a licensed bail agent like Bail City for a non-refundable premium of 10%–20%, and the agent guarantees the full amount to the court. If the jail lists the bond as "cash or surety," either option works. If it says "cash only," a bail agent cannot post it.
