How bail works after a Hilliard arrest

When someone is arrested in Hilliard, the Hilliard Division of Police (5171 Northwest Parkway) typically transports them to the Franklin County Corrections Center in Columbus, the countywide jail run by the Franklin County Sheriff. Where the case is arraigned depends on the charge. Minor violations of the Hilliard City Code are heard at the Hilliard Mayor's Court, located in the same Joint Safety Services Building as the police; that court handles misdemeanor city-ordinance and traffic matters but does not conduct jury trials. Most state-law misdemeanors and traffic offenses are filed in the Franklin County Municipal Court at 375 South High Street in Columbus, where arraignments are held weekday mornings and a judge or magistrate sets bail. Felony arrests proceed to the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas after an initial Municipal Court appearance and grand jury or preliminary hearing. Ohio surety bonds carry a state-regulated premium of about 10% of the bail amount, which is non-refundable. A bondsman can post a surety bond at the corrections center on the defendant's behalf, allowing release pending the next court date.
