Short Guide to Bail in NSW: What You Need to Know About Bail Applications, Bail Conditions, and the Bail Act 2013

Key Points

Bail is governed by the Bail Act 2013 (NSW): Bail allows an accused person to be released from custody while the matter is ongoing, there is a presumption of innocence unless there are compelling and significant reasons to deny bail.

Two key tests determine bail eligibility: The unacceptable risk test assesses risks like failing to appear in court and committing further offences, while the show cause test applies to serious offences which requires the accused to prove why detention is not justified and shouldn't be kept in detention

In NSW, breaching bail means failing to follow your conditions. Breaching bail conditions has severe consequences: Non-compliance can lead to arrest, varied conditions, or revocation of bail, with penalties including imprisonment or fines up to $3,300.

Legal representation with an experienced Bail Lawyer is crucial for bail applications: A Bail lawyer can navigate the Bail Act 2013 (NSW), advocate and argue in Court against detention, which is essential because there is no automatic right to bail.

A Bail Lawyer can significantly improve the chances of a successful bail outcome.

Roundabouts, who gives way? 🚘

Do you only need to give way to vehicles on your right at a roundabout?

No, you actually need to give way to any vehicle already in the roundabout, irrespective of whether they're entering on your left, right or directly opposite you 🚗

Slow down and be aware of all vehicles in the roundabout before entering to avoid an accident 🏍
