(A) If bail is set pursuant to Rule 520, the
defendant shall be eligible for the following types of release on bail. The
bail authority, after considering the release criteria in Rule 523, shall
determine the type or combination of types of release on bail reasonably
necessary, in the bail authority's discretion, to ensure that the defendant
will appear at all subsequent proceedings and comply with the conditions of the
bail bond.
(B) All of the types of
release in paragraph (C) shall be conditioned upon the defendant's written
agreement to appear and to comply with the conditions of the bail bond set
forth in Rule 526(A).
(C) The types
of release on bail are:
(1) Release On
Recognizance (ROR): Release conditioned only upon the defendant's written
agreement to appear when required and to comply with the conditions of the bail
bond in Rule 526(A).
(2) Release on
Nonmonetary Conditions: Release conditioned upon the defendant's agreement to
comply with any nonmonetary conditions, as set forth in Rule 527, which the
bail authority determines are reasonably necessary to ensure the defendant's
appearance and compliance with the conditions of the bail bond.
(3) Release on Unsecured Bail Bond: Release
conditioned upon the defendant's written agreement to be liable for a fixed sum
of money if he or she fails to appear as required or fails to comply with the
conditions of the bail bond. No money or other form of security is
deposited.
(4) Release on Nominal
Bail: Release conditioned upon the defendant's depositing a nominal amount of
cash which the bail authority determines is sufficient security for the
defendant's release, such as $1.00, and the agreement of a designated person,
organization, or bail agency to act as surety for the defendant.
(5) Release on a Monetary Condition: Release
conditioned upon the defendant's compliance with a monetary condition imposed
pursuant to Rule 528. The amount of the monetary condition shall not be greater
than is necessary to reasonably ensure the defendant's appearance and
compliance with the conditions of the bail bond.
