Why Pomona Parents Trust Us on Juvenile Bail
Searching for Pomona juvenile bail bonds? Learn the rules before any paperwork. We count 20+ years in business and 867+ clients helped, and each call about a minor starts with custody law.
The site footer shows our California Department of Insurance license, 1844710. It covers bail bonds in criminal court, so a minor with a juvenile court case needs none until a transfer.
A minor whose case stays in juvenile court has no bail to post. We walk you through the release steps instead, and our Pomona bail guide covers the adult side.
We know Pomona City Jail, 490 W. Mission Blvd., and Pomona Courthouse South, 400 Civic Center Plaza, where the Superior Court lists a Juvenile Justice division alongside its Criminal division.
After a transfer, WIC 208.5 still keeps a detained minor whose case began in juvenile court in a county juvenile facility. Probation and the court set timing, so we quote no hours.
Once a case moves to adult court, the standard premium is 10% of bail, and we list any other cost in the agreement before you sign. Explaining juvenile custody by phone costs nothing.
How Bail Works for a Juvenile in Pomona
For a minor arrested in Pomona, the Welfare and Institutions Code replaces adult bail rules. Find your family’s stage below, along with the single point where a bond fits.
WIC 625 lets a Pomona officer take a minor into temporary custody and requires a rights warning. Officers may hold the minor at a police station up to six hours under WIC 207.1 to investigate or reach a parent. WIC 626 allows release.
Instead of holding the minor, the officer can write a WIC 626(c) notice to appear before the county probation officer. A parent may have to sign a promise to appear, and the officer then lets the minor leave, with no money paid.
LA County Probation’s Intake and Detention Control screens the minor and calls a parent. WIC 628 requires release to a parent unless home is against the minor’s welfare and one ground applies: safety, flight risk or a violated juvenile court order.
Without a petition, WIC 631 requires release within 48 hours, excluding nonjudicial days. With one, WIC 632(a) sets a detention hearing by the next judicial day’s end; WIC 635 favors release and WIC 636 caps each order at 15 judicial days.
Prosecutors may seek WIC 707 transfer for a felony committed at 16 or older, or a listed serious offense at 14 or 15 if the arrest came after juvenile jurisdiction ended. If the judge agrees, WIC 707.1(b) allows bail on adult terms.
Under WIC 603, a criminal court cannot try conduct before 18 unless the juvenile court gets a petition and orders adult prosecution. A criminal judge who learns the defendant was under 18 must suspend the case and certify it to juvenile court (WIC 604).
Was your child 18 or older on the date of the offense? Adult rules apply; for a lesser charge, see our misdemeanor bail bonds.
Three Simple Steps to a Bail Bond
Call (888) 998-9511 at any hour. Once bail has a dollar amount, you sign the agreement and make a low down payment on the standard premium, 10% of bail.
We spread the premium balance over a written plan that fits your budget. Penal Code 1276.1 bars a second premium on the same bond, however long the case runs.
A licensed agent posts the bond with the facility holding your loved one. Each jail controls its own processing time, and we keep your family updated from posting until release.

Juvenile Bail Bond FAQ
Parents ask these questions after a Pomona arrest involving a teenager. Answers follow California statutes and the state Constitution; for advice on your child’s case, call a juvenile defense attorney.
Not in juvenile court, which has no bail. A bond fits only after a WIC 707 transfer to adult court. For an offense at 14 or 15, transfer needs a listed serious offense and an arrest after juvenile jurisdiction ends, so a child arrested at 15 stays in juvenile court.
Minors in juvenile custody have no bond to post. The county’s Pre-Arraignment Release Protocol, part of the Superior Court’s bail schedules, decides if an adult arrested without a warrant goes home before arraignment or stays in custody. For a minor, WIC 628 and the detention hearing decide release.
If a transferred case carries $1,000 bail, the standard 10% premium is $100, with a low down payment to start. Union members, veterans, active-duty service members and anyone with a private attorney may be eligible for a filed 8% rate, $80. Juvenile court sets no bail figure at all.
Call (888) 998-9511. A licensed agent answers by phone 24/7, in English or Spanish. We first check if your child’s case allows a bond; for a minor in juvenile court, a juvenile defense attorney or the public defender will help more than we can.
Not over the debt alone, since article I, section 10 of the state Constitution bars jail for civil debt. Penal Code 1300 still lets a bail agent return a defendant to custody before forfeiture; if that surrender comes before a court date, 10 CCR 2090 requires a premium refund, narrow cost exceptions aside.
