Thanks for asking me “Are there alternatives to having to post Bond / Bail in FL?”

Yes. Not only are there alternatives to posting bond but, and much to the chagrin of bailbonds’ people throughout the Sunshine State, Judge’s have plenty of non-monetary alternatives to bail / bond in FL. 

In fact, and per FL.R.Crim.P. 3.131(b), "there’s a presumption in favor of release on nonmonetary conditions for any person who is granted pretrial release." 

This Rule actually requires that Judges MUST impose the least restrictive condition of release that’ll “reasonably protect the community from risk of physical harm to persons, assure the presence of the accused at trial, or assure the integrity of the judicial process.”

From least to most restrictive the possible pretrial release conditions are:  1) An “ROR” or release on recognizance - meaning no conditions at all; 2) A signature bond - meaning you “promise” to pay “X” if you either fail to appear or get re-arrested while your case is pending; 3) A custody release - meaning that you’re released to the care of someone else - which could be a person, like a relative or an employer or an entity like "pretrial services", which is an agency that's tasked with supervising people who are pretrial released from jail without bond; 4) A monetary bond - meaning that you actually post “X” dollars and 5) House Arrest - meaning that you’re at home in lieu of being in jail.  The Judge can also employ any combination of these conditions.

So, as long as the Judge decides that society is safe and you’ll appear in court when required, then yes, there are plenty of options other than monetary bail.  That said...
