License Suspensions & State Fees
License suspensions are administered by the Alabama State Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) — view official license suspension information →. First and second offenses also carry a $100 Impaired Drivers Trust Fund fee (§ 32-5A-191.2).
Court Dates & Case Records
Clarke County court information is published through the 1st Judicial Circuit at clarke.alacourt.gov, with statewide case and court-date lookups at alacourt.gov. Federal cases are docketed at alsd.uscourts.gov.
Missing a court date in the 1st Circuit means a bench warrant and bond forfeiture. Call us before a date is missed — it is far easier to fix in advance.
Payment Plans For Clarke County Families
The 10% premium is fixed by Alabama law, but M&J works with families on monthly installments, co-signer arrangements, and collateral including real property and vehicle titles.
Accepted: Visa, Mastercard, Amex, ACH, Zelle, and cash. The whole process can run remotely — phone, e-sign, pay online. See /alabama/payment-plan-bail-bonds/, /alabama/no-collateral-bail-bonds/, and /alabama/online-bail-bonds/.

What Does A Bail Bond Cost In Fulton, Alabama?
Alabama law (Ala. Code § 12-19-311) fixes the bail bond premium at exactly 10% of the bail amount — the same rate across all 5 Clarke County municipalities. M&J charges exactly that. State fees are disclosed upfront.

River Corridor Federal Charges Are 15%
Clarke County borders both the Alabama River and the Tombigbee River — active waterway corridors that can generate federal jurisdiction situations including smuggling and federal drug charges. Federal cases go to the U.S. District Court — Southern District of Alabama and carry a 15% premium instead of the 10% state rate. See /alabama/federal-bail-bonds/.
Read the statute: Ala. Code § 12-19-311
10%State-Set Premium
Premium rate verified by FindLaw →
Alabama state administrative fees are added on top of the 10% premium under Ala. Code § 12-19-311 (verified by FindLaw at codes.findlaw.com). M&J discloses the exact total before you sign anything. Ranges are illustrative only and are not a quote or promise of bail.

Payment Plans
For Real Families
Most families don't have the full 10% premium sitting in a checking account — and that is completely normal. M&J Bail Bonds offers flexible payment arrangements tailored to your financial situation so cost is never the reason your loved one stays in jail longer than necessary.
Payment Plans
We work with you on a payment schedule for the premium. Ask our agents about monthly payment arrangements when you call. No two situations are the same — we will find something that works for your family.
Collateral Options
Depending on the bond amount, collateral may or may not be required. Many DUI bonds — especially first and second offenses — do not require collateral at all. Ask us about your specific situation.
Multiple Payment Methods
We accept Visa, Mastercard, Amex, ACH / bank transfer, Zelle, and cash. Ask about which methods work best for your payment plan arrangement.
Important
The 10% premium is non-refundable under Alabama law — it is earned the moment the bond is posted, regardless of how the case resolves, even if charges are dropped. This is not M&J policy — it is Alabama state law (Ala. Code § 12-19-311). Our agents will explain this fully before you sign anything.

Start Bail ApplicationBail Eligibility
Who Qualifies For Bail In Fulton?
Most people arrested in Clarke County are bailable. Alabama's constitution guarantees bail in most cases — but Aniah's Law created an exception for certain serious offenses, and federal charges follow a separate process.
Misdemeanor Charges — Almost Always Bailable
The Clarke County bail schedule applies, so no judge is required. Bail is available within hours of booking at the Clarke County Jail and release is often same-day.
- County schedule — no court appearance needed
- Bond can be posted 24 hours a day
- See /alabama/misdemeanor-bail-bonds/
Authority
Clarke County bail schedule
Felony Charges — Usually Bailable
A 1st Circuit judge sets bail at arraignment in Grove Hill. All four classes — D through A — are typically bondable unless Aniah's Law applies.
- Bail set by a 1st Circuit judge
- Preliminary hearing in District Court confirms probable cause
- See /alabama/felony-bail-bonds/
Authority
1st Judicial Circuit — Clarke, Choctaw, Washington, Monroe Counties
Aniah's Law Charges — Bail May Be Denied
Murder, robbery 1st, kidnapping 1st, burglary 1st, drug trafficking, DV 1st, and arson 1st can all result in bail being denied at an Aniah Hearing.
- Judge decides after a hearing; denial is not automatic
- We check Aniah status in real time
- We post the moment a judge grants bail
Authority
Ala. Const. Art. I § 16, am. 2022 (Aniah's Law)
Federal Charges — Different Process
Federal charges go to the U.S. District Court — Southern District of Alabama in Mobile. A U.S. Magistrate sets bail and a 15% premium applies.
- U.S. Magistrate sets conditions of release
- 15% premium on federal bonds

Step 1 — Arrest & Transport
A Fulton police officer, a Clarke County Sheriff's deputy, or an Alabama state trooper transports the defendant to the Clarke County Jail at 149 Clark Street, Grove Hill.

Step 2 — Booking
ID confirmation, health screening, property inventory, fingerprints, and photograph. Booking records may take several hours to appear online — which is why calling early matters.
