Jenkintown Bail Bonds

Jenkintown Borough uses Court 38-1-02 in Suite 100 B at the shared York Road building. The neighboring suites serve other township areas; confirm the court number instead of treating every Jenkintown postal address as a borough case.

Center City Bail Bonds operates from its Philadelphia office, not a local branch. We are a private company, not affiliated with or endorsed by Montgomery County or its courts.

Why Choose Center City Bail Bonds?

Families facing an arrest in Jenkintown need clear information and respectful support. Our availability is separate from court schedules and case-specific bonding authorization.

  • 01

    Available 24 Hours a Day

    Our team is available for inquiries day and night, including weekends and holidays. Business availability does not mean court offices are open or confirm authorization to arrange a particular bond.

    Montgomery County Assistance

    We help families identify official Montgomery County court and custody resources from our Philadelphia office. Commercial bonding authorization remains under review; arrangements are discussed only when legally permitted.

  • 04

    Payment Options Explained

    Understand the county’s published direct-cash instructions and any separately permitted surety terms. Collateral, financing and refund responsibilities depend on the actual order and agreement, not a general advertised estimate.

How Bail Works in Jenkintown

Confirm the actual court assignment and custody location first. Judicial authorities determine eligibility, bail and conditions; no fixed release time or commercial terms are promised.

Need help understanding the bail process?

Get Bail Help

  1. Step 1: Arrest and Processing

    After an arrest, the person is processed by the arresting agency and may be taken to Montgomery County Correctional Facility.

    Gather the person's full legal name, date of birth, and the arresting agency. A booking alone does not mean bail has been set.

  2. Step 2: Bail Is Set

    At the preliminary arraignment, often handled by a magisterial district judge and sometimes by video, the charges are read and bail is typically set.

    Release may be on recognizance, nonmonetary or unsecured conditions, or monetary bail, including a percentage deposit where the court allows it.

  3. Step 3: Review Bail Options

    Review the court's order: cash posted directly with the county, an eligible surety bond arrangement, or other court-approved release conditions.

    A commercial surety bond involves a nonrefundable premium and a written agreement. Contact us to discuss whether bond assistance fits the case.

  4. Step 4: Complete Necessary Arrangements

    Direct bail is paid at the Clerk of Courts on weekdays or, after hours, at the correctional facility. A bail bond company may ask for collateral or a co-signer.

    Anyone posting bail becomes the surety and is responsible for the full amount. Understand every obligation before you sign.

  5. Step 5: Release and Court Responsibilities

    After the paperwork reaches the facility, an eligible person may be released. Timing depends on facility processing and any other holds or detainers; no release time is guaranteed.

    After release, every condition must be followed and every court date attended, or bail can be forfeited.

Bail Costs & Payment Options

The judicial authority sets bail and release conditions. Direct cash bail, a court-authorized deposit and a permitted commercial surety arrangement are different obligations. The county’s payment procedures do not establish a commercial premium.

Where Bail Is Set

Bail is typically set at the preliminary arraignment by a magisterial district judge. The Court of Common Pleas can review or change bail on request.

Magisterial District Courts(opens in a new tab)

How Bail May Be Posted

Bail for criminal cases can be paid at the Clerk of Courts Office, Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., excluding holidays. In-person bail is cash only; bring a valid photo ID and be at least 18.

Clerk of Courts: Bail(opens in a new tab)

After-Hours Bail Payments

If the defendant is held at Montgomery County Correctional Facility, the county says cash bail can be paid there after hours, on weekends and on holidays.

Clerk of Courts: Bail(opens in a new tab)

Release From Custody

Release follows once the facility processes the paperwork. Anyone posting bail for someone else becomes the surety and is responsible for the full bail amount.

Clerk of Courts: Bail(opens in a new tab)

Commercial Terms & Responsibilities

Montgomery County authorization and commercial terms remain under review. No fixed premium estimate, financing offer or commercial calculator is provided here. If a commercial surety arrangement is permitted, review its written premium, collateral, co-signer and financing obligations before agreeing. All judicial conditions and court appearances remain mandatory.

County bail information line: 610-278-3346. The county says wire transfers may take one to two business days, or longer when offices or banks are closed for a holiday. Checked against the county's bail page on 2026-10-15. Call to confirm office changes and case-specific requirements.

Jail & Custody Resources

Suite 100 B is a hearing office, not a Jenkintown county jail. Local borough processing, district-court proceedings and MCCF admission are different; confirm the adult’s actual location through official contacts.

    Montgomery County Correctional Facility

    Montgomery County's correctional facility, located in Lower Providence Township. It houses both people awaiting trial and people serving sentences.

    • Location: the facility is in Lower Providence Township; its mailing address is in Eagleville.
    • Custody status: call the facility to confirm whether someone is currently held there. Being booked does not mean bail has been set.
    • After-hours bail: the county says cash bail can be paid at the facility after hours, on weekends and on holidays when the defendant is held there.
    • Release: release can depend on court conditions, outstanding holds or detainers, and facility processing.
    • Office hours: the county lists facility office hours as Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. These are not the same as bail payment or release hours.

Jenkintown Local Courthouses

Court 38-1-02 serves Jenkintown Borough and designated Cheltenham districts. Court 38-1-03 in Suite 100 A serves other Cheltenham districts, and 38-1-05 in Suite 100 C serves part of Abington. Those adjacent offices are not interchangeable borough courts.

  • Magisterial District Court

    38‑1‑02

    117 York Road, Suite 100 B, Jenkintown, PA 19046

    215-635-1535

    The county assigns all of Jenkintown Borough to Court 38-1-02, along with designated voting districts in Cheltenham Township.

    Cheltenham Township is divided among district courts. The rest of Cheltenham is assigned to Court 38-1-03, which shares the 117 York Road building but is a separate court with its own suite and phone.

    County directory · January 5, 2026

    Office hours: 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM

    Public hours: 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM

    Published office and public counter hours are distinct, not real-time confirmation. Holidays, special closures and hearing schedules may differ. Call this court before visiting.

    For a Cheltenham case, check the district number on the paperwork or the docket. Being in Cheltenham does not by itself mean Court 38-1-02.

    Check holiday closings, hearing times and whether a hearing is in person or by video with the court before you travel. Hours can change.

What Information Do You Need to Start?

You can begin an adult assistance inquiry even if you do not yet have every detail. Share what you know; confirm missing custody and case information with the appropriate officials.

  • 01

    Defendant’s Full Legal Name

    Provide the correct first and last name. Middle names and accurate spelling can help officials distinguish people with similar names.

  • 02

    Date of Birth or Approximate Age

    A date of birth or approximate age, if known, helps identify the adult. You can begin an inquiry without it.

  • 03

    County or Location of Arrest

    Share the incident location and arresting agency if known. A mailing city alone may not establish municipal or court jurisdiction.

  • 04

    Jail or Detention Information

    Tell us the confirmed facility, if available. Local processing, MCCF custody and temporary courthouse holding are different; an unknown location need not prevent an inquiry.

  • 05

    Booking or Case Number, If Available

    An existing booking or docket number can help identify the matter, but it is not required to begin. Do not post confidential case documents here.

Common Criminal Charges and Bail

These Pennsylvania examples distinguish the conduct charged, offense grading and judicial release decisions. They are educational, not legal advice or a promise that a charge qualifies for commercial surety.

  • DUI

    75 Pa.C.S. §§ 3802, 3803

    Section 3802 distinguishes general impairment, alcohol-concentration tiers and controlled-substance driving offenses. Section 3803 supplies grading; the charged subsection and prior offenses matter.

    Classification

    DUI is not a single uniform grade. Misdemeanor or felony grading depends on the statutory tier, history and other specified circumstances.

    Bail considerations. The court considers the case and release factors; a DUI allegation does not establish a fixed bail amount or an automatic surety option.

    DUI Bail Bonds
    DUI offenses(opens in a new tab)DUI grading(opens in a new tab)

  • Drug Charges

    35 P.S. § 780-113(a)(16), (a)(30)

    The Controlled Substance Act distinguishes unauthorized possession from manufacture, delivery and possession with intent to manufacture or deliver. The substance and alleged conduct affect the applicable provision.

    Classification

    Simple possession and possession with intent to deliver are different allegations with different penalty provisions. Do not infer a grade from the words ‘drug charge’ alone.

    Bail considerations. A judicial authority evaluates release independently of the label. Other holds or conditions can prevent release even after a monetary condition is satisfied.

    Drug Charge Bail Bonds
    Controlled Substance Act · § 13(opens in a new tab)

  • Assault

    18 Pa.C.S. §§ 2701, 2702

    Simple assault and aggravated assault have separate elements. Allegations involving injury, intent, weapons or protected victims can affect which subsection applies.

    Classification

    Simple assault has misdemeanor grading with statutory exceptions. Aggravated assault has felony grading that depends on the subsection; the two offenses are not interchangeable.

    Bail considerations. Safety concerns and case circumstances may affect monetary and nonmonetary conditions. No charge title guarantees monetary release.

    Assault Bail Bonds
    Simple assault(opens in a new tab)Aggravated assault(opens in a new tab)

  • Theft and Burglary

    18 Pa.C.S. §§ 3921, 3903, 3502

    Theft by unlawful taking addresses unlawful control of property. Burglary concerns entry into specified premises with intent to commit a crime and has its own statutory elements.

    Classification

    Theft grading can depend on value, property type and statutory circumstances. Burglary is a separate felony offense with its own grading distinctions—not simply theft with a different name.

    Bail considerations. The judicial authority considers the actual allegation and release factors. A property's value alone is not a bail quotation.

    Theft Bail BondsBurglary Bail Bonds

  • Domestic Violence

    18 Pa.C.S. § 2711 · Pa.R.Crim.P. 526

    Domestic violence describes a context, not one universal offense. The underlying charge may involve assault or other conduct; § 2711 addresses specified offenses involving family or household members and case-specific bail considerations.

    Classification

    Grading follows the offense actually charged, not the relationship label. Protective orders and judicial no-contact conditions require separate attention.

    Bail considerations. Section 2711 includes a threat-to-victim determination in covered cases. Obey all imposed restrictions; payment does not cancel a protective order or guarantee release.

    Domestic Violence Bail Bonds

  • Warrants and Failure to Appear

    18 Pa.C.S. § 5124 · Pa.R.Crim.P. 536

    A warrant is a court process, not a universal new charge. Section 5124 addresses default in a required appearance after court-ordered release, without lawful excuse; whether a separate offense applies depends on its elements.

    Classification

    The statutory default offense has specified grading distinctions. An outstanding warrant or detainer can also require judicial action independently of a new charge.

    Bail considerations. Rule 536 permits changes to conditions, revocation, bench warrants and forfeiture after violations. Paying a bond does not automatically clear a warrant or restore release.

    Warrant Bail BondsFailure to Appear Bail Bonds
    Default in required appearance(opens in a new tab)Violation of bail conditions(opens in a new tab)

Release factors are case-specific under Pa.R.Crim.P. 523(opens in a new tab). Statutory changes and the actual charged subsection can affect a case. This information is provided for general informational purposes and does not constitute legal advice. Court procedures and individual circumstances may vary. Confirm case-specific requirements with the appropriate court or a qualified attorney.

Jenkintown Bail Bonds FAQs

Answers to the questions families ask most often about bail in Philadelphia and the surrounding Pennsylvania counties.

Get Bail Help

Court 38-1-02 serves the borough and designated Cheltenham Township districts. Check the hearing notice’s court number even when the postal address says Jenkintown.

No. Suite 100 B is 38-1-02; the neighboring suites identify separate courts serving other assigned township areas. Follow the court-specific suite and directions.

No. Its Jenkintown address is an office location. The county lists it for designated Cheltenham Township districts, not Jenkintown Borough.

No. It is a separate incorporated borough. Shared mailing names and nearby court offices do not change the municipal boundary.

The directory lists Jenkintown Police at 215-884-1202. It is a department contact, not a live county custody roster. For emergencies, dial 911.

No. A hearing office and a custody facility are separate. Confirm local processing with the agency and county admission with MCCF before traveling.

Suite 100 B is a hearing office, not a Jenkintown county jail. Local borough processing, district-court proceedings and MCCF admission are different; confirm the adult’s actual location through official contacts. For adult county custody, contact MCCF at 610-635-7100. A public docket is not a live inmate roster.

No. The listed district office handle initial proceedings for assigned areas. Charges held for court may move to Common Pleas at 2 E. Airy Street in Norristown. Follow each notice’s court and address.

Use the county Clerk of Courts instructions, not a local police or district-court address.

Confirm the order at 610-278-3346 before leaving Jenkintown.

No. Montgomery County authorization and commercial terms remain unresolved. This borough guide explains official county payments separately from any legally permitted written surety arrangement; it provides no fixed premium, financing offer or commercial calculator.

No. Other holds and facility processing can prevent or delay release. After release, use the assigned Magisterial District Court 38-1-02 notice and any later Common Pleas notice, attend every hearing and obey all conditions. Payment does not remove a protective order.

No. The business office remains 1238 South Street, Philadelphia, PA 19147. Jenkintown Borough and court addresses here identify geography and public resources, not a local Center City branch or county endorsement. Adult inquiries use the existing assistance form; do not provide juvenile details.
