- Q. So the judge can set the amount of bail to what he wants. Is There's no legal limit??
- A: Bail is set using various guidelines, which vary a bit between jurisdictions. The bail amount has to be reasonable when considered in light of the severity of the crime, but bail will also be higher if the defendant has a substantial criminal history, especially one that includes bail jumping. Bail is meant to ensure that a defendant isn’t going to be committing more crimes while out of police custody and that the defendant will come back to court when summoned, so the amount factors those issues in.
- Q. My husband was arrested on pending felony charges 9/14 72 days in jail No charges have been filed
- A: He can be kept in custody indefinitely, depending on what he has been charged with and whether the DA’s office indicts him on his felony charges. If he can’t make bail, he can hire an attorney to argue for a bail reduction. Either way, he’ll need a criminal defense attorney for the underlying charges.
- Q. I received victim impact request from DA from a fight I had with my husband. Now he wants me to call DA?
- A: You shouldn't feel pressured to call the DA, and you don't have the ultimate power to drop the charges anyway-- the DA does, and there's no guarantee that they will. It may be helpful to take the free class they're offering, but fundamentally it's your choice whether you want to cooperate in the DA pursuing charges against your husband or not. The bottom line is that you aren't in control of whether charges stick or are dropped-- he needs to hire a criminal defense attorney.
