EN: To post bail
This is what happens in teleseryes when the 'bida' gets framed and thrown in jail. Their rich tita or lawyer best friend will rush to the courthouse to 'pumiyansa' so they can be free while the case is ongoing. It's literally paying to get out of jail (for now).
From Spanish 'fianza' (bond, guarantee).
A legal term used in the context of law and court proceedings.
