JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Authority.

- Defendant's motion for bond was properly denied because a purported detainer did not meet the requirements in O.C.G.A. § 42-6-2, did not constitute arrest and confinement of the defendant, did not require the presentment of the charges to a grand jury within 90 days, and did not entitle the defendant to automatic bail under O.C.G.A. § 17-7-50. Denson v. State, 317 Ga. App. 456, 731 S.E.2d 130 (2012).
