Bail Policy
Now, more than ever, the policies of a District Attorneys’ office provide the framework for navigating the path of justice considering the simultaneous, and sometimes competing, interests of public safety, accountability, vindication of victims’ rights, the rights of a defendant to due process and fair consideration and our duty to all citizens, including both defendants and victims and their families. These policies are a guide to accomplishing the goal of justice. This office hereby incorporates the substance of the California District Attorneys’ Association 2016 publication “Professionalism” as if fully set forth herein.
