Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
No Bond
My boyfriend is charged with aggravated assault on a LEO and was denied a bond today. Is there any chance of him getting a bond or even ROR? Is there any jail time for this even if it's his first offense?

Re: No Bond
Your boyfriend's attorney can motion the Court to reconsider the bond denial.
Re: No Bond
Your boyfriend is charged with a very serious offense... on that the police and the State Attorney's Office will take very seriously. He should be able to get a bond. You would need an attorney to set a "bond hearing" on his behalf. Even though this is his first offense, there is a 3 YEAR MINIMUM MANDATORY PRISON sentence on that charge. If the State files the Aggravated Assault on a LEO, he will be looking at some prison time. There are a couple of ways around the prison time that an experienced criminal defense attorney can go over with you and your boyfriend.

I used to work in that State Attorney's Office and my law office is right across the street from the courthouse on 49th street in Clearwater. I'd be more than happy to provide you with a free consultation and/or answer any questions you have about his charge.

Re: No Bond
Without a VOP being charged with it, bond denial is illegal. You need to speak with a lawyer. Jail time is mandatory if he is convicted as charged.
