Notice to bail bondsmen


Oakland County, MI (March 29, 2017) – The Oakland County Circuit Court has opened a mid-year application period for new bail bond agencies that are not on the 2017 Bail Bondsman List and wish to apply and for those agencies currently on the list that wish to add additional agents. This mid-year application period is currently open and will run through April 28, 2017.  The updated list will become effective July 1, 2017.  Anyone already approved for the January 1, 2017, list will not need to re-apply for the current year. 

Pursuant to MCLA 750.167(b), the Judges of the Circuit Court are to annually compile and maintain an up-to-date list of the names of persons engaged in the business of becoming surety upon bonds for compensation in criminal cases. The statute states: “The list shall be compiled annually by the Judges of the Circuit Court of each Circuit, and the names of persons engaged in the business of becoming surety upon bonds for compensation shall be added to the list by the Judges upon proper application.”  The Court will circulate the list to the appropriate agencies in accordance with the statute.

The Court Administrator has prepared two applications for bondsmen: one for persons backed by insurance and the other for persons backed by real property. Persons or businesses may apply for inclusion on the list under either category or both. (Statutory authority for this review appears in MCLA 765.20.)

Copies of the Bail Bondsman Application are available on the Oakland County website at http://www.oakgov.com/courts/circuit/Pages/form_application/default.aspx or available in the Court Administration Office.   The Court will only accept applications on the revised (08/2016) form.  All applications must be submitted through the Court Administration Office, 1200 North Telegraph Road, Pontiac Michigan 48341, no later than April 28, 2017.  For questions, contact Karen Koshen at 248-858-0296.
