This document discusses bail in the UK legal system. It defines bail as when a defendant can return home until their next hearing, as opposed to being remanded in custody. It outlines the Bail Act of 1976, which states that all defendants have a right to bail unless they committed an indictable offense while on bail previously. There are exceptions where bail may be denied if the court believes the defendant will fail to surrender, break bail conditions, or commit further crimes. The document also describes conditional versus unconditional bail, with conditional bail allowing restrictions like curfews or reporting requirements.
