As of January 1, 2026, Florida follows a mandatory Uniform Statewide Bond Schedule under Administrative Order AOSC25-69. This schedule sets standard monetary amounts for specific offenses to ensure consistency across all counties. While booking officers use this to set initial bail, a judge in the 17th Judicial Circuit has the authority to increase or, in some cases, adjust these amounts during your first appearance based on your specific legal circumstances and community ties.
