Bond Reduction Request Tips

Summary

When requesting a bond reduction, emphasize the defendants non-violent history, community ties, and role as a primary breadwinner. Highlight any caregiving responsibilities, such as caring for an ill family member, and express willingness to comply with any necessary bond conditions. This approach can strengthen the request by demonstrating the defendants stability and commitment to meeting legal obligations.
