In most cases, an accused individual is entitled to a reasonable bond set by the court, which the accused must post with the court in order to be released from jail following an arrest on a criminal offense. The amount of bail imposed is determined in order to ensure the accused individual does not flee the jurisdiction area prior to a case being resolved.
If a court initially denies bond for a crime, the attorney for the accused may then file a motion to set a reasonable bond and set the motion for a bond hearing. At the bond hearing, the court would consider the nature and seriousness of the charges, the amount of evidence against the accused as a basis for their arrest and detention, as well as their ties to the community. The less serious the charges and less extensive the evidence, and the greater the accused individual’s ties to the local community, the greater the chance of the court setting a reasonable bond.
