Why are some people released from jail without posting bond?
Sometimes the court may decide that the person will return for court dates without posting bond as a financial incentive to come to court. In these case, the court may “OR” the person, which means they are released on their “own recognizance” and are not required to post money with the court or a bail bondsman.
