About bail

Bail is a set of pre-trial restrictions that are imposed on a person charged with a criminal offence to ensure that they will not hamper the judicial process. Court bail may be offered to secure the conditional release of a defendant with the promise to appear in court when required. In some countries, especially the United States, bail sometimes includes a deposit of money or some form of property to the court by the person charged with an offence in return for the release from pre-trial detention. If the defendant does not return to court, the money is forfeited and the defendant may face additional criminal charges, such as failure to appear. If the defendant makes all their required appearances, the money is returned after the trial is concluded.
