How bail works after a Dearborn Heights arrest

When someone is arrested in Dearborn Heights, the Dearborn Heights Police Department processes them at the Justice Center on Michigan Avenue. Most arrestees are held there or transferred to the Wayne County jail in Detroit (the Wayne County Criminal Justice Center) pending arraignment. Misdemeanor and local charges are arraigned in the 20th District Court, which serves the City of Dearborn Heights and sits in the same Justice Center building; this is where a judge or magistrate sets bond. Michigan courts typically offer personal recognizance (PR) release, a cash bond, a 10 percent cash bond, or a surety (bail) bond posted by a licensed bail agent. If the charge is a felony, the case begins in the 20th District Court for arraignment and a preliminary examination, then is bound over to the Wayne County 3rd Circuit Court for further felony proceedings. Once a bond amount is set, a surety bond lets a family pay a state-regulated premium to a bondsman rather than the full cash amount. Dearborn Heights is a distinct city from neighboring Dearborn, and arrests here are handled by Dearborn Heights authorities and the 20th District Court, not Dearborn's 19th District Court.
