Am I entitled to bail?

It depends. Bail amounts for probation violations vary from county to county. Bail amounts for probation violations may also depend on the type of offense you were convicted of, and whether you are on informal or formal probation.[831] If you have internet access, you can usually find standard felony and misdemeanor bail amounts for probation violations (also referred to as “bail schedules”) on your county Superior Court’s website, or call your county public defenders office to ask them about bail amounts for probation violations.[832]

    For example, you can find Riverside County’s bail schedule at: http://www.riverside.courts.ca.gov/bailschedule.pdf. In Riverside County, the standard bail amount for a violation of informal probation is $5,000, and $50,000 for a violation of formal probation.
