What is Bails Matters and Why it's Important to Secure a Qualified Attorney

WHAT IS BAIL?

Bail is a legal mechanism that allows an accused person to remain free during the investigation or trial of a criminal case. It is based on the principle that “bail is the rule, jail is the exception.” Indian criminal law ensures that no individual is deprived of their personal liberty unless absolutely necessary.

A person released on bail must fulfill certain conditions imposed by the court. These conditions ensure that:

• The accused appears before the court when required

• The accused does not tamper with evidence

• The accused does not threaten witnesses

• The accused cooperates during investigation

The court carefully weighs the nature of the criminal charges, the personal background of the accused, evidence, cooperation levels, and the likelihood of absconding before granting bail.

Whether you are facing a minor offence or a serious allegation, proper legal representation significantly increases your chances of securing bail.

1. Anticipatory Bail (Section 438 CrPC)

Anticipatory Bail is filed before a person is arrested. It is used when someone has reason to believe that he or she may be arrested due to a false FIR, a dispute, or a complaint.

When is Anticipatory Bail Needed?

Anticipatory Bail is extremely useful in cases relating to:

• False FIRs

• Matrimonial disputes (498A, etc.)

• Family disagreements

• Local disputes or enmity

• Business disagreements

• Loan disputes

• Cyber complaints

• Property disputes

• Political pressure cases

• Police harassment

2. Regular Bail (Sections 437 & 439 CrPC)

Regular Bail is filed after a person has been arrested. It is the most commonly used form of bail, especially for non-bailable offences.

Where is Regular Bail filed?

• Magistrate Court

• Sessions Court

• High Court

• After arrest

• After police custody

• When remanded to judicial custody

• When arrested in a non-bailable offence

3. Interim Bail

Interim Bail is a temporary bail granted by the court until it makes a decision on the main bail application (anticipatory or regular bail).

Why Interim Bail is Important?

• Immediate protection from arrest

• Useful when the court hearing is delayed

• Helps avoid police custody during interim periods

We ensure Interim Bail is filed and granted when needed to protect your immediate liberty.

4. Default Bail (Section 167 CrPC)

Default Bail is not based on the merits of the case. Instead, it is a statutory right of the accused.

When is Default Bail applicable?

If the police fail to file a charge-sheet within:

• 60 days (for offences punishable up to 10 years)

• 90 days (for serious offences including murder, rape, NDPS, etc.)

In such cases, the accused is entitled to bail automatically.

Our Role:

✔ Monitor deadlines
✔ Draft and file default bail applications
✔ Ensure your legal rights are protected

5. High Court Bail

When lower courts reject bail, or the case involves serious offences (like NDPS, POCSO, economic offences, or heinous crimes), bail must be filed in the High Court.
