Welcome to the bail bonding information page.  Here is the list of options that can assist you and your family members in bonding someone out of Bartow County Detention Center.  All bonding transactions will take place at the Bonding/Visitation Center Lobby.

 

Bond Fee

In accordance with OCGA 15-16-21(c)(8), a $20.00 Sheriff’s Bonding Fee will be collected with each property or cash bond that is signed.

​

*Firearm Exception*

If a person(s) uses, brandishes or discharges a firearm during the commission of a crime, the Sheriff exercises his right for stricter bond requirements. In this case, property owners pledging property will have to demonstrate that they have sufficient equity in the property to secure the bond amount.  Proper documentation such as tax assessments, Title Searches, loan papers and others deemed necessary will be presented prior to the bond being secured.

​

Listed below are four different options to bond someone out of the Bartow County Detention Center.

​

​Use a Professional Bonding Company

If you use a professional bonding company, they will charge you 12% to 15% of the total bond. That is the fee they charge for signing the bond and you will NOT get this money back. The bonding company can also require that you put up some type of collateral to cover the bond amount. There are three bonding companies that have been approved by Sheriff Millsap to sign bonds in Bartow County.

Sign a Property Bond

To sign a property bond, you must own or be buying the property and it must be located in Bartow County (GA). When you come to sign the bond you must bring that year’s tax assessment papers and a photo identification card. The only subject that can sign the bond is the subject whose name is on the tax assessment papers. The assessed value of your property must be enough to cover the bond in question, not the fair market value. Once the bonded subject is totally finished with his/her case, then your property will be released from that bond. If the bonded subject does not show up for his/her court date, a lien will be placed on that property.

 

Sign a Cash Bond

To sign a cash bond you must bring a photo identification card and enough cash to cover the bond. We only accept paper money (no change allowed). Once the bonded subject is totally finished with his/her case, then you will get your money back. If the bonded subject does not show up for his/her court date, you will lose your money.

 

Transfer Bonds
We do accept transfer bonds from other counties in the state of Georgia. The bond must be approved through the county’s Sheriff’s Office where the property is located. Once the bond is signed, the other county will seal it in an envelope that must be hand delivered to the Bartow County Detention Center by the person who signed the bond. The person signing the bond must also bring a photo identification card with them when they deliver the sealed bond to us. Transfer bonds have the same stipulations as a property bond.
