There is no set and published rules for this, only guidelines. The judge will take into consideration such things as your past record, your ties to the community, the possibility of flight risk, the prosecutors recommendation, etc. Based on the results of considering a number of factors the judge will set the bail amount, or possibly, deny it altogether.
The following are mandatory requirements:
1. Not wanted for any other offense.
2. Not a flight risk.
3. A clean (or minor) criminal history record.
4. Promise to appear.
The following MAY also be taken into consideration:
5. Ties to the community.
6. Head of household/breadwinner.
7. Ailing or sick.
When a person is out on bail, conditions are set by the judge. For example, no drinking, if the police officer sees that you are drinking, then you have breached your bail conditions. Bail conditions can vary greatly by locality. In some areas they are standardized to the same things for anyone on bail, in other locations they may be specific to each case and set by the judge.
This depends on how the bail was handled. If a Bondsperson decided to revoke (surrender) your bail, you can bail out via another Bondsperson. If a Judge denied bail only he or another Judge can reinstate it. You need to file a motion for change of bond conditions or motion for bond reduction.
Bail is the property or money given as surety that a person released from custody will return at an appointed time.
When you are out on bail it is similar to probation in that the court system is allowing you out under certain conditions. These conditions almost always include the non-use of drugs or alcohol. They can require you to submit to random testing and you have to comply or your bail will be revoked and you will sit in jail.
They expect him or her to comply with the conditions set at bail by the Court and to show up in court on the day of trial.
The word bail has one syllable.
Are you certain that one of the conditions of his bail release is that he is required to have no contact with you? If so, contact his probation officer, or the local agency that supervises bail release. If you are uncertain of this prohibition, check on the exact conditions of his release by going to the Court Clerks Office and asking to review his case file. The paperwork pertaining to his release on bailbond should be included in it, and will tell you whether or not he is prohibited from contacting you or not.
Yes, bail may be set without a hearing. In many jurisdictions bail bond amounts and conditions of release are initially set by jailers according to a preset bond schedule authorized by the courts.
From the information given in the question, I seriously doubt that any judge would consider you a good bail candidate or that any bailbondsman would want to risk his investment on you. In my experience, when it comes to bail release - one strike and you're out.

Bail
The amount of a bail bond and conditions of pretrial release are set by the court. If an incarcerated defendant wishes to have the the bail bond amount reduced, the court should be petitioned for a hearing where evidence pertaining to what would be an appropriate amount can be introduced and considered by the court. The court may then reduce the amount of the bail bond.
