No. If the warrant is from another county, he will be held in custody until he is transferred to the other county. If any of the warrants are for failure to appear in court then there is a good chance he will be denied bail as a flight risk at his arraignment hearing. If not, the judge will set bail based on arguments by the prosecutor and his defense counsel (court appointed if he can't afford one) at which point you can post bail.I need legal advice asap?
For sure only if there is a bail set on your friend by the county jail. Usually it takes two to three hours after the arrest to set a bail. You will need to call up a bail bonds company that can help you more because they can call up the police department along with proper procedures.
I have little exprience in this kind of situations that is why I am sharing. However, laws can differ based on the intensity of your friend's crime.
You need to get the advice of an attorney. It is not a good idea to seek legal advice over the internet - the field of Law is too complex for that.
Call your local (usually county) bar association. Ask for names of lawyers that handle criminal law.
