They cannot have been found guilty or pled no contest within the past 15 years to any felony charge and they can’t have any outstanding unsatisfied judgment entered on any bail bond in any court in Missouri or the US. POST YOUR OWN 10% CASH BOND: Bonds are generally set at a specified cash amount by the court.
