Yes, bail can be reduced at a pre-preliminary hearing. During this hearing, a defendant or their attorney can present arguments and evidence to demonstrate that the current bail amount is excessive or unjustified. The judge then has the discretion to adjust the bail based on the circumstances of the case, the defendant's ties to the community, and other relevant factors. However, the specifics may vary depending on the jurisdiction and the nature of the charges.
Yes it can, but it is less likely your bail will be reduced for a measure 11 offense.
Hearing
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.
From what I know you have to either go in front of a judge and request that it be lowered or have a lawyer do it. Another option to consider is to request being released on a PR or and OR. Meaning personal recognince or own recognince. Basically your word is the bail money. You promise to appear in court. Hope this helps.
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.
This means that the hearing will be continued at a later date, which could be the next day or two to even a month or two. This often occurs when the judge orders the person to be evaluated prior to his making such a decision about bail.
A bailable offense means you can pay bail and get out of jail until your hearing, which is forfeit if you don't show-amount varies with offense and some (like murder) have no bail amt.
There is not set amount for bail. It will be decided by the judge at a pre-trial hearing.
Don't understand question. If you're released at your arraignment on personal recognizance or on bail, you will be notified when to appear for your preliminary hearing. Don't miss it because if you do, both the police AND your bail bondsman will be looking for you.
EVERYONE is entitled to be CONSIDERED for release on bail HOWEVER - depending on many circumstances (which the judge will take into consideration), it may or may not be granted. Request a bail hearing.
When bail is reserved, it means that the decision on whether to grant bail to a defendant is postponed to a later date or hearing. This often occurs in more complex cases where the judge requires additional information or legal arguments before making a determination. During this time, the defendant may remain in custody until the bail hearing. Reserving bail allows for a careful consideration of the circumstances surrounding the case.
