Can you get bail bond on a capital murder charge

Bail in capital cases, if set, is set by the judge. There is no "standard" bail for murder.

Mr. Kaman is correct as usual. Capital Murder is one type of charge where the Court can determine that no bail amount is sufficient or satisfactory, given the potentialpunishment. This issue, given the type of case should be discussed in person with an experienced criminal defense lawyer before any bail motion is argued in Court. Good luck.

Instead, given the nature of this website, it is provided solely for informational purposes, for you to use as a starting point when speaking directly with a lawyer in your State. Do not assume that the legal theories I mention that pertain to NJ will apply in your State. The laws of each State; and, the facts of each case are different, and it is therefore critical for you to consult with a lawyer admitted to practice law in your State before making any decisions on how to handle or dispose of your case.

technically you can, but many courts will not give a bond without a pretty good fight. Most counties in Texas will have a standard bond schedule that particular offenses fall under. In Harris County, where i practice, capital murder falls under the "no bond" category. The judge can always address the issue of bond and the attorney should fight that a reasonable bond be set.
