Understanding Bond Denial in General District Court
When a general district court denies bond, the decision is based on several factors that may include:
- Risk Assessment
The court examines factors such as the severity of the alleged offense, the defendant’s criminal history, and the likelihood of appearing for future court dates.
- Public Safety Considerations
Courts assess potential risks to community safety, considering evidence and circumstances presented during the initial hearing.
- Procedural Review
The bond determination is subject to legal standards and procedures that must be followed precisely. Any deviation from these protocols may serve as the basis for an appeal.
The Appeal Process
Appealing a bond denial involves a detailed review of the lower court’s decision. The process generally includes:
- Reviewing the Record. Our team examines transcripts and evidence from the initial hearing to identify any deviations from accepted legal standards.
- Legal Analysis. We analyze statutory guidelines and case precedents to determine if the bond denial was supported by sufficient legal justification.
- Preparing the Appeal. If the review identifies potential errors or procedural issues, we assist in preparing the documentation required to file an appeal in the appropriate appellate forum.
- Presenting Legal Arguments. The appeal process involves articulating specific legal arguments regarding why the bond denial should be reconsidered based on the record and applicable legal principles.

Got a referral from a friend. "Call this guy I heard he's good." With much skepticism I called.
Dan did an excellent job for me. You will notice immediately he is smart, decisive, no nonsense and many more great qualities you want in a lawyer. It took very little time to see I just hired one of the best lawyers I've ever met.Professionally speaking, If you want somebody to tell you all the wonderful things that make you feel all fuzzy and warm its not Dan in my opinion.
However, if you want a highly intelligent, brutally honest, focused, driven lawyer that will shoot straight every time AND go the extra mile to make sure no rock is left unturned... Dan is the man!

Call Dan Miller now - you need look no further for the best divorce attorney in Hampton Roads. Divorce is not an easy situation but it is even worse if you do not have good representation.
I was in the midst of a divorce and my case was with a firm that was not representing me fairly and not answering my questions. I was at a loss and dreaded going to court. Then a friend told me of Dan Miller. I wish I had found this firm in the beginning! From the first hour of turning my case over to this office I stopped worrying. I knew I had made the right choice and my case was in good hands. Dan Miller was professional, and he fought for me and I was very happy with the way he handled my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

I was very nervous when I had to go to court over a traffic accident I was recently involved in. Dan put me at ease almost immediately with his knowledge and tenacity. By the time Dan was finished questioning the other people involved in the accident I did not even have to testify (which was the major source of my nervousness). My innocence was clear to everyone in the room, thanks to Dan. Would definitely use him again and recommend him to others. Aside from his performance during the hearing he was very easy to contact and always kept appointments with me. He also answered all of my questions patiently and with understanding.- Client
