State v. Kastanisgreen
utah · 1993 · cited in 2 Arizona opinions naming this issue, 2004–2008
2 sentences

2008“Although a person charged with these offenses may be granted bail if the State cannot successfully satisfy its burden of proof, it is not feasible for the bail hearing to take place at the time of the initial hearing if for no other reason than that the accused ‘must be given adequate notice to prepare for the hearing.’ ” Id. (quoting State v. Kastanis, 848 P.2d 673, 676 (Utah 1993)).

2004Kastanis, 848 P.2d at 676 (citations omitted); see In re Haynes, 619 P.2d at 642 ("[T]he bail hearing is not for a determination of guilt or innocence, but rather a determination of the preliminary issue of the right to bail.... [T]he evidence adduced at the hearing as precluding pretrial release must be sufficient to support a finding that the `proof' is `evident' or gives rise to a `strong' presumption of guilt." (Citation omitted.)). ¶ 43 Simpson maintains that all evidence produced at the bail hearing must comport with the rules of evidence.
