Answer 4

The terms are often used interchangeably. I understand the terms as follows: Bail is the amount the court holds to ensure someone appears in court. It is returned after the trial. Bond usually refers to an amount equal to 10% of the bail that is paid to a bondsman or the court acting as a bondsman to as a fee for posting bail. This amount is not refundable. My source is various TV shows and should be relied on to the same degree.
