What were the bail laws in Ohio in 2022? See also: Bail law in OhioĪrticle I, Section 9 of the Ohio Constitution says that bail is not granted to a person who commits a capital offense "where the proof is evident or the presumption great", or to a person who is charged with a felony "where the proof is evident or the presumption great and where the person poses a substantial risk of serious physical harm to any person or to the community." This section also states that excessive bail and excessive fines shall not be imposed. Instead, the measure requires courts to use factors such as "public safety, including the seriousness of the offense, and a person's criminal record, the likelihood a person will return to court, and any other factor the general assembly may prescribe" when setting bail amounts and conditions. As of 2022, the Supreme Court had the authority to set the rules for trial courts, according to the constitution. Issue 1 eliminates the requirements that bail amounts and conditions are established pursuant to Article IV, Section 5b, which requires the Supreme Court to prescribe the rules and practices of the state courts.
