California gives veterans access to military diversion (PC 1170.9) and veterans' treatment courts. Here's what to ask for at the bail stage.
What to know
Every scenario has specific quirks the standard bail process doesn't cover. Here are the things that actually matter:
Tip 1
Tell your bondsman the defendant is a veteran — we apply our military discount automatically (20% off the premium).
Tip 2
Ask the public defender about military diversion for misdemeanors with a service-connected nexus.
Tip 3
Bring DD-214 or VA card to the bail meeting if available.
Tip 4
We coordinate with VA-affiliated defense counsel on every veteran client.
