Introduction. In NSW, the approach to bail conditions in domestic violence cases has been redefined with a groundbreaking requirement for certain offenders to wear electronic ankle bracelets as part of their bail conditions.
Some examples of crimes that receive ankle monitors include: Driving under the influence. Minor drug or alcohol offenses. Nonviolent sex offenses. Unlawful immigration.

Ankle monitors may also be a condition for getting a reduced bail amount. By agreeing to wear one, an individual assures the court of their commitment to staying in the area and not fleeing. This can increase their chances of receiving a lower bail amount or even having no bail at all.
Personal jewelry represents another commonly used form of collateral. The value of individual items such as rings, broaches, or necklaces can be difficult to ascertain without a professional assessment. Some bond agencies are therefore understandably cautious about accepting jewelry as collateral.
