Although it can be difficult to get bail on a murder or manslaughter charge, it is possible. A bail hearing for murder or manslaughter charges will be heard by a Justice of the Court of Queen’s Bench. As the accused, you will be required to prove that your detention is not justified.
You will likely require the assistance of an experienced criminal lawyer to create a bail plan that will be accepted by the Court. In these cases, a surety will often be required.
