2. Bail Amount Set

After booking, the bail amount is determined. This can happen in one of three ways:

1. Pre-set Bail Amount (Clark County Bail Schedule)

• Clark County follows a standardized bail schedule that outlines pre-set bail amounts for different offenses.
• Common Bail Amounts from the Clark County Bail Schedule:
  
  • DUI: $2,000
  • Domestic Violence: $3,000
  • Assault with a Deadly Weapon: $20,000+
  • Drug Possession (Felony): $5,000
  • Burglary: $20,000+
• The Clark County Bail Schedule is available at the Clark County Courthouse or Detention Center.

2. Judge’s Decision at a Bail Hearing

• If bail is not pre-set, the defendant must appear before a judge within 24-48 hours for a bail hearing.
• The judge considers:
  
  • Severity of the crime
  • Defendant’s prior criminal record
  • Flight risk (likelihood of skipping court dates)
  • Ties to the community (family, job, residence, etc.)

3. Release on Own Recognizance (O.R.)

• If the judge determines the defendant is not a flight risk, they may be released without bail on a promise to appear in court.

Once bail is set, the defendant can be released as soon as bail is posted.
