    Hello a:

    Yes. Give the clerk of the court a call to find out where to pick up your check.

    Absolutely yes. If you have been through the court's procedures and showed up at every court appearance you will get your money returned. You need to go in person with your paperwork you received when you bailed yourself out. Go to the Clerk's Office and they will do whatever paperwork necessary for you to get your bail money back in full.

    If you paid the full bail amount out of your own pocket, then yes, you are entitled to have your money returned. However, if you went to a bondsman for a fee (typically 10% of the bail amount) then no, the money you paid to the bondsman won't be returned to you.
