Our office is frequently asked to agree to reduced bail on those incarcerated pre-trial. In some cases, we do agree. Unfortunately, these poor misunderstood souls sometimes commit new crimes while out on those agreed amounts. Bail being a Constitutional right, could we impose an explicit condition (I believe it is already implied)that defendant not commit any crimes while out on bail. If done in writing, with the assistance of counsel and judicial admonishment, I believe such waiver of a constitutional right would be enforcable. Anybody disagree? | ||

Are you referring to the topics under this thread, in which is discussed the authority of the court to deny bail in cases where an explicit term is to commit no new offenses, and one is committed? | |||
