After an arrest
- Who decides release first
A judge, usually a district judge, decides release at the first appearance; in felony cases, the circuit judges can name district judges as criminal magistrates to do this. A judge who signs an arrest warrant can set bail on it. Many counties also let the jail accept bond on a schedule the local judges sign; this varies by county and was not confirmed statewide.
