Boyd v. Jenne
Boyd v. Jenne
Opinion of the Court
At a status conference on January 25, 2001, at which Petitioner appeared to request an unopposed continuance, he learned that the second degree felony for which he had been out on $2,500 bond for four months had been refiled by the state as a first degree felony. Petitioner had never been served with the new capias, which had been placed in the file. Petitioner argued for a bond lower than the scheduled amount appearing in the capias, which did not appear to have been set by any judge; the judge instead set bond at twice the scheduled amount for the refiled charge and imposed additional conditions of release. Petitioner then filed the instant petition for writ of habeas corpus in this court, asking that the matter be ordered set for hearing and reinstatement of the initial bond. We grant the petition in part, and order the matter set for noticed hearing.
Accordingly, we grant the petition in part and direct the trial court to hold a noticed hearing on the conditions of Petitioner’s pretrial release with respect to the refiled charge.
