My question involves criminal law for the state of: Michigan. I have a 17 year old nephew that just got arrested on a Felony warrent that he was not aware of having.. The warrent happens to be for another County that is 127 miles from were we live he has no previous criminal history the judge set bond at 250,000 , 10% meaning we need 25,000 witch I think is responsible high for a 17 year old with no criminal history. I've read about a bond reduction hearing and the process to file one.. How long does it take to get a hearing for a bond reduction? Since he is a first time offender why is he not able to receave a P.R bond? Again he is only 17 , he has been incarcerated for 5days, being charged as a adult so he is in a jail..
