APP BEF SESSIONS COURT / HIGH COURT TO REDUCE BAIL OR BOND AMOUNT

Whereas the Magistrates Court grant Bail to the Applicant accused, but call upon them to furnish Bail of a higher amount. The Bail is furnished, either by furnishing Surety person or if the Court so permit by depositing cash in the Court.

In so far Bail by Surety is concerned, the Surety who would be furnishing such Bail for higher amount, in some of the States, requires a “Solvent Surety”, which is a certificate issued by the concerned office of the Collector of the district. This obtaining of certificate would take quite a long time, and thereby the very purpose of obtaining Bail is defeated. In so far Cash bail is concerned, the economic condition of the Applicant accused may be such that he cannot afford the Bail amount.

In such cases, an Application u/s 439 / 440 may be moved by the relatives / friends of the arrested person before the competent Sessions Court / concerned High Court, asking for reduction of Bail amount.
