The most common way to reinstate a bond is to request your bail agency to re-assume the liability and file a 1305(c)(4) penal code motion. If you complied with all the conditions of your bail agency then they are required by law to reinstate your bond or refund the premiums paid. The bail agency also can't use the excuse that you haven't paid them the premium for not reinstating the bond.

If you posted your own money or surety with the court, you should receive it at the the conclusion of your case, provided that you showed up at every court hearing and never skipped or had to be tracked down and arrested on a bench warrant.

On the other hand, if you used the services of a bailbondsman, as his fee he keeps the the money you paid him to front your bond money, and you will not get that back.

Actually, if you've already been tried and sentenced, AND you made all the court appearances that you were supposed to, you (or whoever posted your bond) should have been able to get their bond money back right after you were sent to jail or prison to begin your sentence.

EXCEPT: If you used the services of a bailbondsman, you will NOT get back the fee that he charged for posting your bond for you. That is HIS profit for taking the risk on you, and is not refundable.

Petition the court for a bond reduction hearing. Once the hearing is set, be prepared to present a case outlining why a reduced bail bond amount is appropriate.
