Kingsport, TN asked in Criminal Law for Tennessee

Q: My question is why does it say $0.00 for my sister's bond amount on the inmate website?

also, this is posted on her court records( WARRANT BIND OVER ST2648-20, ST2649-20) I'm not sure what it means and I can't find those numbers anywhere online. Are the laws or codes or case numbers? any info would be appreciated. Thanks

A: There may not be a Bond set. But more importantly call the Court and ask the Bond amount. Sometimes the Jail knows. Finally, sometimes a Bondsman can find out. Sometimes a Bond is not set quickly, but it takes until the next day. Keep in mind the Bond is not important, it is the Charge she should worry about, and she needs a competent attorney to represent her.
