There will be many questions that you want answers to. Here are a few.
Where is my vehicle?

Examples of a few of several scenarios that may happen when an individual is arrested for a dui.
- One scenario is that a defendant could be arrested, booked into jail, and released the same day. This situation usually occurs when it’s an individual’s first offense and they are just over the legal limit to drive.
- Another scenario is that an individual is arrested, and there is a judge on call that can issue a bail to be posted prior to the arraignment. The availability of this option often depends on what county an individual is arrested in.
- Yet another option is that a person is arrested, and is required to wait until their arraignment. This could mean that if an individual is arrested on a Friday night they might not see the judge until Monday.
- Also, if an individual is arrested on a Saturday or Sunday they may not see the judge until the following Tuesday.
Midwest bonding and their agents should be able to help you understand the time line of events if you give us a call.
In the event that a defendant has to wait for an arraignment the judge will set the conditions for release. One option is that judge might release a defendant on a RPR or his/her promise to return for court with-out needing to post bond or being on being placed on conditions. Another option is that a judge could set conditions on a defendant’s release.
An example would be that a defendant could be released with several conditions OR post bond. These conditions might include things such as blowing into a machine 3x a day, refraining from bars and liquor stores, or random drug or alcohol testing.
Some of these conditions can be expensive and confusing so it is important that a defendant understands the cost of the conditions and what is expected of the defendant to ensure that they are not rearrested for violating their conditions of release.
Often times a defendant is released on an RPR with conditions, they post conditional bail and later decide that they wish they would have posted unconditional bail. No worries, Midwest Bonding is able to help.
If a defendant decides to change their mind and post unconditional bail they can call Midwest Bonding, make arrangements with one of our representatives, and that agent will bring the bond to the courts to get a person off of conditions. The time to do this is before you violate your conditions and not after. Please give Midwest Bonding a call and they may be able to get you off of conditions today.
Clearly there is a lot of information to learn and understand in the unfortunate event that a person is charged with a DUI. The wheels of justice move slowly, and often times the process takes months and not days.
Midwest Bonding is the perfect company to call in the event that you elect to post unconditional bail, post bail with conditions, or decide to get off conditions after you have already been released. We have agents located throughout the state, we have decades of experience, and we are the busiest and highest rated bail bond company in Minnesota.
