Bonding Information

District Court Bonds

• District Court Bonds are divided into several categories, the most common being: Cash-Surety, Personal Recognizance and ORCD (own recognizance cash deposit).
• Cash Bonds: Are bonds posted using exact cash (we do not accept cashier's checks or money orders) or utilizing GPS (Government Payment) which is a credit card bond.
• ORCD Bonds: Are bonds ordered by the court and if you use this option, you will post 10% of the total bond as cash. On this type of bond, the cash receipt has to be put in the name of the individual bonding.
• Surety Bonds: Are bonds that utilize a bonding company approved by the District Court. There is an approved list in the lobby of both facilities as well as a list scrolling at the top of this page.

Municipal Bonds

Municipal bonds are posted in a similar manner to District Court Bonds. We will post Municipal Cash Bonds for all Johnson County cities except:

• Lenexa
• Olathe
• Overland Park

To post cash for these cities you must post it with them and bring back the receipt.

The bonding/release process may take several hours to complete.
