Bail Eligibility in Utah Any person who has been charged with a non-capital crime is entitled, in most situations, to bail. Capital crimes are those crimes punishable by death. Most states that have a bail system have their own laws that may impact eligibility.

You need to file a motion to amend bond conditions with the court. You should at least consult with a local criminal defense attorney (if you are not already represented by someone) to discuss the issues the court will consider, and the best way to address those issues.
If you are taken into custody in Utah and can't afford bail, you will be held in jail until your trial date. This period of awaiting trial is known as “remand detention,” and it can last up to a few months.
