Oregon Order Setting Bond is a legal term used to describe a type of bond that is set by the court for individuals who have been charged with a crime in the state of Oregon. In order to obtain release from custody before their court appearance, the defendant may be required to post a bond as a form of assurance that they will attend all future court proceedings related to their case. The purpose of an Oregon Order Setting Bond is to provide a financial incentive for the defendant to comply with the legal process and ensure their appearance in court. This bond is typically set by the court judge and is determined based on various factors, including the severity of the offense, the defendant's criminal history, and the likelihood of the defendant fleeing the jurisdiction. There are different types of Oregon Order Setting Bonds that may be imposed depending on the circumstances of the case: 1. Cash Bond: A defendant can post the entire bond amount in cash directly to the court. If they attend all court hearings, the cash will be returned to them at the resolution of their case, regardless of the outcome. 2. Surety Bond: This type of bond involves obtaining services from a bail bondsman or a licensed surety. The defendant pays a non-refundable fee, usually a percentage of the total bond amount, to the bondsman who then posts the bond on behalf of the defendant. The bondsman assumes responsibility for ensuring the defendant's appearance in court and in case of non-compliance, the bondsman is liable for the full bond amount. 3. Property Bond: A property bond allows the defendant or their representative to offer property as collateral to secure the bond. The value of the property should exceed the bond amount. Failure to comply with the legal process may result in the foreclosure and sale of the property to cover the bond amount. 4. Release on Own Recognizance (ROR): In certain cases, the court may grant release without requiring the defendant to post any bond. This is typically reserved for individuals with minimal flight risk and a low probability of committing further offenses. It is based on trust that the defendant will appear in court as required. It is important to note that the specific type of bond imposed will vary based on the judge's discretion and the circumstances of the case. Defendants should consult with their attorney to understand the specific requirements and options available to them when it comes to an Oregon Order Setting Bond.
