Do you need a lawyer for bail pending trial?
It's not necessary. Defenders such as criminal suspects, defendants and their legal representatives, close relatives or lawyers have the right to apply for bail pending trial. However, the legal representatives and close relatives of the criminal suspect or defendant may also apply for bail pending trial, but they are not entitled to meet the criminal suspect or defendant in custody. Article 67 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the people's courts, people's procuratorates and public security organs may obtain bail pending trial for a criminal suspect or defendant under any of the following circumstances: (1) Those who may be sentenced to public surveillance, criminal detention or independently apply supplementary punishment; (two) may be sentenced to more than fixed-term imprisonment, bail will not cause social danger; (3) A woman who is seriously ill, unable to take care of herself, pregnant or breast-feeding her baby is released on bail pending trial, which will not cause social danger; (four) the detention period expires, the case has not yet been settled, and it is necessary to get a bail pending trial. Bail pending trial shall be executed by the public security organ. Article 68 When people's courts, people's procuratorates and public security organs decide to release a criminal suspect or defendant on bail pending trial, they shall order the criminal suspect or defendant to put forward a guarantor or pay a deposit.
