Public Safety Bonds

Public Safety Bonds, in the context of immigration, are a type of bond used to ensure that a non-citizen who is detained will comply with immigration laws while they await their court hearings. These bonds require the individual or an appointed sponsor to pay a certain amount of money to secure their release. If the individual fails to appear in court, the bond may be forfeited. Essentially, it acts as a financial guarantee that the person will follow legal procedures, balancing the need for public safety with the individual's rights.
