Bail Payment

The Clerk of Courts Office accepts payment for bail for all criminal cases pending at the Court of Common Pleas. District courts accept bail for cases pending in their jurisdiction during office hours. After hours and on weekends, bail can be posted for district court cases at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility if the defendant is housed there:

Montgomery County Correctional Facility
60 Eagleville Road
Eagleville, PA 19403

In the Clerk of Courts Office, bail is accepted during office hours (8:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.). It is suggested that you arrive at least one half hour prior to the office closing. The Clerk of Courts Office can only post bail if the defendant has had a preliminary hearing.

Forms of Payment

The form of payment accepted for the payment of bail is cash. Money orders, credit cards, and checks are not accepted for bail.

Please bring identification with you. You must be at least 18 years old to post bail.

If you become surety for the defendant, you become personally responsible for the entire amount of the bail unless you relinquish any claim for the bail money and place the bail money in the defendant’s name.
