Jail to Bail (Virginia Approved for 1 CLE Credit)

The last few years have seen significant legislative changes to the law regarding bail, bond, and pretrial release in the Commonwealth, as well as changing attitudes toward the use of cash bonds and surety in certain jurisdictions. This one-hour CLE will provide an in-depth review of the law, procedure, and best practices regarding bail, bond, and pretrial release. The goal of this training is to provide criminal practitioners with a broader understanding of these issues, so that they can provide more effective advocacy for clients facing pretrial detention. There is one handout for this course. Please request via email to alexbar@alexandriabarva.org Accreditation of this program is approved through October 31, 2023.
