The presiding judge set new bonds in two matters during the status conference and ordered that existing bond conditions remain in place.

In one case the judge announced, “New bonds can be set at $18,000. All the prior bond conditions from 12/04/2023 shall remain in place.” The defendant in that case was released on bond after the court spoke those terms on the record.

In a separate matter the state requested a new bond of $1,200; the court set a new bond at $2,500 and directed that the bond conditions from 03/17/2024 remain. “New bond set at 2,500 with the bond conditions from 03/17/2024 remaining in place,” the judge said.

Why it matters: Bond amounts and conditions control whether defendants remain in custody pending case resolution and under what terms they may be released. The court retained prior conditions in both matters rather than substituting new supervision requirements.

What happened next: In the $18,000 bond matter the judge discharged the defendant from custody following the bond adjustment. In the $2,500 bond matter, the record shows counsel requested that prior conditions be rolled forward; the court honored that request.

Context: The court did not modify the specific terms of the existing bond conditions on the record; it reiterated that the previously ordered conditions remain in effect. The transcript does not record any contesting motions or formal written objections to the new bond amounts.

Next steps: Defendants who are released under the new bonds must comply with the previously ordered bond conditions. Any party seeking to change those conditions would need to make a motion at a subsequent hearing.
