Bail

Bail refers to the legal provision allowing an accused individual to secure temporary release from custody by providing a guarantee to the court. This guarantee, known as surety, transfers the accused from judicial custody to the responsibility of the sureties, who ensure the accused’s appearance in court as required. Bail is considered an interim relief and may be revoked by the court based on evolving circumstances. The legal framework for bail is provided under Sections 496, 497, and 498 of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1898.

Types of Bail and Our Expertise
