BROWN, Judge,
concurring in part.
I concur in part with the majority and write separately to state that IC 35-33-8-3.2 cited in the opinion allows the trial court options in addition to granting Winn’s request to deposit an amount with the clerk of not less than 10 percent of the amount of bail. Specifically, IC 35-33-8-3.2(a)(1)(A) provides for execution of a bail bond with sufficient solvent sureties. Other parts of subsection (a)(1) allow for execution of a bond secured by real estate in the county, posting a real estate bond, or performing any combination of the four requirements described in that subsection. On remand I would not require that the trial court grant Winn’s motion but would allow the court the discretion afforded by IC 35-33-8-3.2.
