Return of bail money in PA.

DUI 9 views 3 answers
Family memeber was arrested for DUI and related charges. Paid $2,000 cash bail in 11/2007. Today 9/11/09 is the last day of his probation. Do I have to do anything to get my bail money back? No one told me at the time that I had to do anything and they told me that it would be sent.

The faimly member who posted the bail member should call the court to remind them to release the bail funds.

It depends on the county that the case was in In most counties one would apply to the Clerk of Courts for a bail refund in Philly I beleive its the Clerk of Quater Sessions. Also the bail should have been available for release as of the time the person was sentenced not at the end of a probationary program Of coure thats irrelevant now since its past the end date of the probation.
