Bail is set by a magistrate, and there are many factors in determining the amount. Flight risk, proof of identity, numerous 'failure to appear' charges on a record, and the person's previous criminal history... All of these factor in the decision for bail amount. Bail is not a punishment, but a way of making sure a person shows up for court.
It all depends on whether it was premeditated attempted murder or just attempted murder.

Attempt Murder?
Certainly. Especially, if the Attempted Murder case is part and parcel of the murder charge that they are facing.
The typical amount of bail for first-degree murder is NO BAIL. If there are special circumstances to the case, such as the reason for the murder is out of mercy and compassion, the judge may allow bail.
No, murder means you killed someone. Attempted murder means you tried to kill someone. You could still go to jail, though.
Attempted murder is a serious criminal offense and can result in life in prison. If convicted of attempted murder in California, a person can be fined up to $10,000 and receive a life in prison sentence.
It depends on the state and the facility.
Difficult to answer simply. No, not in a legal sense. Attempted murder is a completely different offence. Of course the attempted murder of a child IS abuse but the charge is different, it may also be an additional charge. Being charged with child abuse is not the same as being charged with the attempted murder of a child.
Absolutely, as long as you have your bail and your attorney money.Another View: UNLESS, the judge deems you a flight risk because of your past actions or criminal record.
Yes, only if person dies from injuries sustained from the attempted murder of that person.
