Bond Hearing Denial Concerns
Summary
Denial of a bond hearing is not typically contempt of court but may involve procedural issues. In Iowa, bond hearings should occur within 24-48 hours of arrest. If this timeline is not met, it may be grounds for a procedural challenge. A Motion to Vacate or Motion to Challenge Hearing can address such errors. Both motions are typically written and filed with the court. Judges cannot be refused for procedural dissatisfaction, but a motion for recusal can be filed if bias is suspected. The right to a speedy trial in Iowa requires trial within 90 days of indictment. Discovery delays can be addressed by filing a motion to compel. Exculpatory evidence must be disclosed by the prosecution as soon as identified.Full Conversation
