Released on Own Recognizance. It's not a charge. It's good.

It can mean that you are released until your next court appearance without having to post a bond. Usually, they tell you not to leave town.

Or, it can be what they say to you after your verdict has been read and the fines and/or sentencing are given by the judge and it is in question whether you are going to serve a sentence.

For example, if you have already been in jail for 45 days, and you are sentenced to 30 days in jail with 36 hours of community service and 3 years probation, the judge will probably say, "30 days in the county jail, 36 hours of community service; defendant's jail sentence is commuted for time served; 3 years probation; the defendant is released on his own recognizance."
