Bail is the temporary release of an accused person awaiting trial, often with conditions attached. In Canada, the Criminal Code establishes a presumption that accused persons should be released unless detention is justified. Release may involve promising to appear in court (a recognizance), depositing money (cash bail), or having someone act as a surety who pledges money and takes responsibility for ensuring the accused follows conditions. Bail conditions might include staying away from certain people or places, surrendering passports, or regular check-ins. If someone violates bail conditions, they can be re-arrested and detained until trial.
