No Bond Hold

Alexis explains: "anytime that you're charged with a domestic violence charge you must be seen in front of a judge in order to argue bond as quickly as possible the general rule of thumb is between 24 to 72 hours now technically it should be before 24 if there's any way possible but with the weekends and different docket loads it could take longer generally speaking though within the first three days that you are arrested you will be appearing before either a judge or magistrate in order to be given a bond the reason i say given a bond is because that mandatory arrest law in colorado exists you are placed on a no bond hold until a bond can be set in your domestic violence case"

Alexis explains: "if you know anything about bonds and other charges let's say for example there's a drug charge and an arrest warrant goes out saying okay we're going to place a 50 000 bond on this person if they get picked up they have to pay 50 000 to get out in domestic violence cases it doesn't work that way if you're arrested there is no bond set you have to wait until your hearing to even get a bond set so that's why these programs are fast tracked to allow that person to have the opportunity to argue bond as soon as possible"
