PC 1275 refers to Penal Code 1275.1 which states that if there is a reason to suspect that the money being used for bail might have come from illegal activity, then the bail cannot be accepted. This is called a 1275 Hold. Anyone involved in the arrest or prosecution process can place the PC 1275 hold on bail. PC 1275
Holds are most often invoked in cases that involve gang activity, charges of drug dealing, theft including embezzlement, or charges of extortion. Charges such as these may indicate a higher probability that the money available to the defendant came from illegal activities and is, therefore, ineligible for acceptance as bail.
Many of the charges related to drugs can result in a PC 1275 Hold on Bail. If the defendant is suspected of possession with the intent to distribute, the case can be made that the money available to the defendant was raised from past sales of drugs, making that money ineligible for use in paying bail.

When someone is arrested for possession of drugs, the arresting officer or the prosecuting attorney will use several factors in determining the purpose of the possession. If there is evidence, in their opinion, that the drugs were intended for sale to others, the defendant will likely be charged with a violation of HS 11352, Possession with Intent to Distribute.

For most people, this is a misdemeanor charge with a maximum fine of $500 or up to six months in county jail.
However, certain circumstances can result in a felony charge of possession of marijuana sales with

If you’ve had a 1275 Hold placed on your ability to post bail for yourself or someone else, you’ll have to attend a PC 1275 Hearing on the matter. The 1275 Hearing will determine whether or not the money that would be used for bail did, in fact, come from criminal activity and whether it is acceptable as bail money.
The court will need to determine that the money being used for bail is “clean.” In other words, was the money gotten from any sort of illegal activity, or is it “clean?” To prove that the money was legally obtained, the defendant will need to gather paperwork that clearly shows their financial situation and
bring that paperwork with them to the PC 1275 Hearing. This paperwork includes:
You may also bring anyone with you who can testify as to the source of your income or help clarify your financial situation. You will also want to bring an attorney or bail bondsman with you to the hearing to help you navigate the Hold process.
