QUESTION
What would be the chances of her getting ROR?
Asked on Oct 02nd, 2012 on Criminal Law - Florida
More details to this question:
She has an 18-month old little girl and she is missing her mommy. Her bond has been set at $15,000 and there is no way I can afford it. She was born at the same time, she has lived here all her life and she has plenty of family ties here. What can I do to help? This is her first time being arrested. Is there anyone that might help us pro bono at by chance? This would be a great blessing and to help my daughter get back on track, face her charges and get what she needs to resolve this.

They sound like compelling facts. If there is no flight risk and the charge is minor, give it a shot.

You do not say why she is in jail, what the charges are, and what her criminal history is.

She is entitled to a public defender, who will likely argue for OR. A lot depends on her past record and the seriousness of the present crime. $15,000 bail indicates the crime is likely a low-level felony.

The pro bono attorney is the public defender. You need to hire private counsel to represent her and make a motion to reduce bond, as well as have a hearing on it. Perhaps you could hire an attorney to make the motion and have the hearing, it is called a special appearance and would be limited to just that.
