FAQ
Being held without bond means that the individual will be held in confinement without being given the opportunity to be bonded/bailed out of jail. The person will be held without bond until a motion for bond is drafted and filed by the attorney and a hearing is held in the court.
The decision to post bail for someone should not be taken lightly. Financially, you risk losing the bail amount or collateral if the defendant fails to appear in court. Legally, the defendant's absence can lead to arrest warrants and additional charges, complicating their legal situation further.
