About Turlock Bail Bonds

The City of Turlock is in Stanislaus County, California. As of 2019, it was the second-largest city in Stanislaus County, right after Modesto. Founded by grain farmer, John William Mitchell, in 1871, the city—originally a town—only consisted of a post office, a depot, a grain warehouse, and a handful of other buildings. It has since come a long way.

Today, Foster Farms, Emanual Medical Center, and Turlock Unified School District are the largest employers in Turlock. Turlock is home to the California State University, Stanislaus Warriors in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). Additionally, the City of Turlock is home to California State University, Stanislaus, a liberal arts university, and part of the 23-campus California State University system.

Turlock’s racial makeup includes whites, African Americans, Native Americans, Asians, and Pacific Islanders.

In 2019, Turlock had an estimated population of 73,631. Notable people from the city include Alison Cox, Dot Jones, Colin Kaepernick, and Cal Niday. As of 2021, the chance of being a victim of violent crime in Turlock is 1 in 173, while the chance of being a victim of a property crime is 1 in 31.

It’s important to know that the police department is equipped with the latest technology in vehicle identification, the Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR). Trained police officers verify ALPR responses retrieved from a statewide database of stolen vehicles, vehicles that were driven by suspended license drivers, and vehicles with outstanding traffic warrants or running violations. The vehicle-mounted ALPR system has the top capacity to scan 50 vehicle plates per minute. Back in the 1920s, there probably weren't fifty vehicles within miles of one another. Now it isn't difficult for them to drive through a row in a large parking lot and read hundreds of license plates in a single pass.

Turlock Bail Bond Facts

Bail in Turlock, CA is a fixed sum of money that is assigned according to the arrest charges of an individual. If the sum of bail is provided by an individual or a family member or associate, the individual is released to conduct their business, continue work, seek legal advice, and go on with life while agreeing to comply with the court's requirements.

Bail amounts are contingent upon the misdemeanor or felony nature of the charge, any warrants that may exist on the person's record, or any previous arrests and convictions of the same time. Bail bonds in Turlock, CA, like the ones provided by Mr. Nice Guy Bail Bonds, offer you a lower capital outlay option. Bail bonds are usually a percentage of the bail with variable rates for producing the bail bond and variable charges. 

For example, bailing someone out who has been arrested for domestic violence (a common charge, at the moment) in Turlock, CA would look like this:

  • $10,000 for misdemeanor
  • $50,000 for felony

At Mr. Nice Guy Bail Bonds, we typically charge 7% on domestic violence cases. We also offer discounts, payment plans, and myriad of payment options, including major credit cards, debit cards, PayPal, Venmo, cash, wire transfers, Zelle, Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies.

Remember: Bail is everyone’s right in Turlock, CA—Even yours!

Bail is a right that is older than the US Constitution and has its own stated part within the 8th Amendment. In the past, it was designed to permit a person's freedom while the community waited for a magistrate or official to hear the case and decide upon the appropriate punishment or fines. This permitted the individual to at least secure personal obligations while waiting for the trial and sentence. In modern times, the delays in this process come from overloaded courts and not from waiting for legal authority to be available to preside over the case.

While a case awaits legal disposition (completion by trial verdict or plea deal or dismissal), the bail or bail bond is held. The monies are returned upon fulfillment of the legal obligations. Knowing that it could reasonably take months or longer for a court date, meaning you or a loved one could be stuck waiting in jail, it makes sense to pursue bail.

Do not forget: If you can’t afford the bail that is set on your own, then call Mr. Nice Guy Bail Bonds in Turlock, CA at 1-844-400-2245 for an immediate consultation about bail bond options.

Domestic Violence in Turlock

PC 273.5 says that it is illegal to inflict “corporal punishment” that results in an injury, no matter how slight. That means if you strike another person who is, or was, an intimate partner, and leave a mark, you have violated PC 273.5 and can be charged with domestic violence.

Corporal Injury Charges – PC 273.5

Corporal injury, or more specifically "corporal injury on a spouse or cohabitant," is defined by California law as "willfully inflicting a physical injury that causes a 'traumatic condition' on an intimate partner." Let's define a few of these terms, to understand better what could be considered a corporal injury.

Who Qualifies as an Intimate Partner?

  • A Spouse
  • A Former Spouse
  • A Cohabitant (someone you live with)
  • A Former Cohabitant (someone you used to live with)
  • A Boyfriend (including same-sex boyfriends)
  • A Girlfriend (including same-sex girlfriends)
  • A Fiancé
  • A Former Fiancé
  • The Parent of Your Child

In other words, anyone you have had a romantic or intimate relationship with, at any point, for any length of time, would be considered an intimate partner.

What is considered a “physical injury?”

Any injury that leaves a mark, such as a bruise or cut.

What is a Violation of PC 273.5?

Penal Code 273.5 reads: "(a) Any person who willfully inflicts corporal injury resulting in a traumatic condition upon a victim described in subdivision (b) is guilty of a felony, and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for two, three, or four years, or in a county jail for not more than one year, or by a fine of up to six thousand dollars ($6,000) or by both that fine and imprisonment. (b) Subdivision (a) shall apply if the victim is or was one or more of the following: (1) The offender's spouse or former spouse. (2) The offender's cohabitant or former cohabitant. (3) The offender's fiancé or fiancée, or someone with whom the offender has, or previously had, an engagement or dating relationship, as defined in paragraph (10) of subdivision (f) of Section 243. (4) The mother or father of the offender's child.”

Assault and Battery Charges in Turlock, CA

Assault and battery are often used together, which might lead you to think that the two charges are the same, or, at least, two parts of a single charge. However, the truth is much more complicated than that. While the two are related, and you could be charged with both, they are two distinct and separate crimes.

Battery Charges – PC 242

Battery is defined as the willful, unlawful use of force against another person. This is a violation of Penal Code 242 and must have three separate elements:

  1. The act must be willful and unlawful
  2. Force or violence is used
  3. The willful use of violence or force is used against another person.

In other words, you have to intend to use force or violence, it has to involve another person, but it doesn't have to cause any damage, injury, or harm. You don't even have to touch the body of the other person, to be guilty of battery. If you touch anything that is "intimately connected" to the other person, like their clothing or something they are holding, disrespectfully or rudely, you could be charged with battery.

Assault and Battery – PC 243 (e)

When a battery is committed against a spouse, a person with whom the defendant is cohabiting, a person who is the parent of the defendant's child, former spouse, fiancé, or fiancée, or a person with whom the defendant currently has, or has previously had, a dating or engagement relationship, the battery is punishable by a fine not exceeding two thousand dollars ($2,000), or by imprisonment in a county jail for not more than one year, or by both that fine and imprisonment.

If probation is granted, or the execution or imposition of the sentence is suspended, it shall be a condition thereof that the defendant participates in, for no less than one year, and complete, a batterer's treatment program, as described in Section 1203.097, or if none is available, another appropriate counseling program designated by the court. However, this provision shall not be construed as requiring a city, a county, or a city and county to provide a new program or higher level of service as contemplated by Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution.

Criminal Threats – 422

(a) Any person who willfully threatens to commit a crime which will result in death or great bodily injury to another person, with the specific intent that the statement, made verbally, in writing, or using an electronic communication device, is to be taken as a threat, even if there is no intent of actually carrying it out, which, on its face and under the circumstances in which it is made, is so unequivocal, unconditional, immediate, and specific as to convey to the person threatened, a gravity of purpose and an immediate prospect of execution of the threat, and thereby causes that person reasonably to be in sustained fear for his or her safety or his or her immediate family's safety, shall be punished by imprisonment in the county jail not to exceed one year, or by imprisonment in the state prison.

(b) For purposes of this section, “immediate family” means any spouse, whether by marriage or not, parent, child, any person related by consanguinity or affinity within the second degree, or any other person who regularly resides in the household, or who, within the prior six months, regularly resided in the household.

(c) “Electronic communication device” includes, but is not limited to, telephones, cellular telephones, computers, video recorders, fax machines, or pagers. “Electronic communication” has the same meaning as the term defined in Subsection 12 of Section 2510 of Title 18 of the United States Code.

Crimes by and Against the Executive Power of the State – 69

(a) Every person who attempts, by means of any threat or violence, to deter or prevent an executive officer from performing any duty imposed upon the officer by law, or who knowingly resists, by the use of force or violence, the officer, in the performance of his or her duty, is punishable by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000), or by imprisonment pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 1170, or in a county jail not exceeding one year, or by both such fine and imprisonment.

(b) The fact that a person takes a photograph or makes an audio or video recording of an executive officer, while the officer is in a public place or the person taking the photograph or making the recording is in a place, he or she has the right to be, does not constitute, in and of itself, a violation of subdivision (a).

Resisting Arrest Charges in Turlock, CA

Resisting Arrest – PC 148(a)(1)

Resisting arrest is a violation of Penal Code 148(a)(1) which prohibits a person from resisting, delaying, or obstructing a law enforcement officer in the performance of his or her duties, which include arresting someone.

If you find yourself in the position of dealing with law enforcement officers, try to stay calm. The more you can keep a level head about yourself and act with restraint toward the police officers and the other party involved, the better things will go. It's important to remember to conduct yourself in such a way that the law enforcement officers don't see you as a threat. This keeps you safe, as well as putting you in a position to be able to calmly explain your side of things to the police.

When dealing with the police, remember:

  • Cooperate with police officers, physically. Don't resist them, even if they feel the need to restrain you.
  • Speak as calmly as possible, if you choose to answer their questions.
  • Don't speak to or yell at the other party in the altercation.
  • Conduct yourself in a dignified way, allowing the officers to see that your behavior was only what was necessary for self-defense.

If you are arrested and charged with battery, the arresting officer should inform you of your Miranda Rights:

  • You have the right to remain silent – They can't make you talk, other than to provide your name, address, and show some sort of identification, upon request.
  • Anything you say can be used against you – If you choose to talk to the authorities, the statements you make can be used against you in court.
  • You have the right to an attorney – You can ask to have an attorney present while they question you. If you ask for an attorney but continue to talk to the officers, while you wait for your attorney, the answers you give can still be used against you.
  • If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you – If you cannot afford an attorney, but would like to have one, the court will appoint an attorney for you, free of charge.

It is important to keep things from escalating in front of the police. If you get angry and strike out against a police officer, new and even more serious charges can be filed against you, including resisting arrest. Remaining calm and being physically cooperative will work in your favor, as you negotiate the legal path that lies ahead.

Assault with a Deadly Weapon Charges in Turlock

Assault with a Deadly Weapon – PC 245(a)(1)

The crime of assault doesn't require any physical contact to take place. To be charged with assault, one need merely attempt to harm someone else and have the ability to do so. The charge Assault with a Deadly Weapon (ADW) the basic assault need only be accompanied by any weapon that could be considered “deadly.”

PC 245(a)(1) reads: "Any person who commits an assault upon the person of another with a deadly weapon or instrument other than a firearm shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for two, three, or four years, or in a county jail for not exceeding one year, or by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000), or by both the fine and imprisonment."

A person could be charged with "assault with a deadly weapon" if he or she uses any weapon that could reasonably be considered dangerous or deadly to attempt to harm another person, even if the other person is not harmed.

  • Knives
  • Guns
  • Hammers
  • Screwdrivers
  • Dangerous Animals
