Yes, bail is a right.
Bail can't be excessive in order to punish a defendant.
I suggest you discuss your predicament only with your lawyer.

The GOOD NEWS for you is you're in CA.

CA is a state troubled with financial and funding issues.

CA is reluctant to incarcerate offenses such as the one you're accused of committing, even with low level priors.

I suggest you don't "forget" ANY COURT DATES.

You'll probably get another chance to bite the legal apple, but don't screw it up.

While you're waiting, avail yourself of other RIGHTS, the RIGHT not to incriminate yourself, the RIGHT to not be forced to testify against yourself, and the RIGHT to remain silent!!!

You'll be out in nine months if you behave yourself, maybe six months.

Talk to your lawyer.
