How Bond Amounts Are Set in Oklahoma — What Families with Someone at Mayes County Jail Should Know

Oklahoma publishes an official Uniform Oklahoma Bond Schedule through the Oklahoma State Courts Network (OSCN). The site lists multiple versions by date, and the current one is effective November 1, 2025. That effective date matters. Bond schedules change, and you want to make sure you're looking at the version that applies right now.

The Uniform Oklahoma Bond Schedule is a solid starting point for understanding where a bond amount comes from. On OSCN, you can review the schedule and confirm the effective date before relying on anything you hear secondhand. If you're comparing numbers, check that you're looking at the current version on OSCN, not an older schedule still floating around online or being repeated by word of mouth.

Once you understand the statewide schedule, confirm how it's being applied locally for your person at Mayes County Jail. Local procedures can affect what you need to do next and which office handles which questions. Plan to verify details through Mayes County's official resources. The county's physical address is One Court Place, Pryor, OK 74361.

1. Start with OSCN’s Uniform Oklahoma Bond Schedule - Confirm you are viewing the current schedule and note the effective date (OSCN lists a current version effective November 1, 2025).
2. Match the schedule to the charge information you have - Use the schedule as the official reference point for understanding where a bond figure may come from, then focus on the charge(s) actually filed on the case.
3. Verify the bond that applies in Mayes County before you act - Use Mayes County’s official pages (for the sheriff or clerk) to find the right contact method and confirm the current bond amount and the process being used for that case.

When confirming something as specific as bond, local records matter. The county clerk's office is where families often turn for official record-related questions. Revenue from printing copies goes directly to support Mayes County, which is one reason to rely on county offices for verification instead of screenshots, reposted schedules, or informal advice.
