Notes about the Bail Schedule - State-wide Offenses:
- This includes felonies, gross misdemeanors, misdemeanors, and
infractions effective throughout the state.
- Some offenses (particularly those dealing with the ocean) are not included
because they do not apply in Yakima County (sorry!).
- Yakima County has a local court rule that requires all persons arrested for
domestic violence crimes be detained without bail until the arraignment the next judicial day. Check
with your own court for other local practices.
- Please share this with anyone in the criminal justice system and anyone who
is otherwise interested in Washington offenses.
- If you notice any errors or omissions, please contact Susan Arb.
- The Washington Supreme Court has just published for comment a proposed rule change that
will change bail amounts for most non-felony crimes. If the rule is adopted, it is not likely to take effect until
September 2010. The Court will accept comments until January 4, 2010. For more information, visit the Court's
website at Proposed
Court Rule (it may be a few days before the proposed rule is on the website).

Bail Schedule -
State-wide Offenses - Microsoft Word Version |
This August 7, 2009, bail schedule includes new offenses
passed by the Legislature this year. Revisions on November 6, 2009, include:
- Temporary RCW citations have been replaced by their permanent RCW
citations.
- Alien in Possession of a Firearm has new elements and a new RCW.
- The Hunting and Fishing sections have been reorganized into a more useful
order, thanks to Captain Richard Mann of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.
- The Index at the beginning contains hyperlinks to each section. Hold down the
Ctrl key when clicking on the section name to jump to that section of the bail schedule. You can also search
quickly for any offense by pressing Ctrl-F and typing what you are seeking (it must be exactly as written
to find the offense).
