Also known as “zero bond” cases, a “no bond” order can be involved in particular violent crime cases when the court fears that an alleged offender is a possible flight risk. In other cases, people may be denied bond if they are arrested while they are on probation or have been released on bond for a previous criminal offense. It is common for bond to be denied in aggravated assault cases involving family or household members. You need to make sure that you have a skilled lawyer who can help argue for a reasonable bond that allows you to be released as soon as possible without requiring a significant sum of money to be paid.
