vs. § HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS

JEAN VALJEAN § 999th JUDICIAL DISTRICT

MOTION TO RELEASE DEFENDANT AND SET REASONABLE BAIL

TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT:

NOW COMES YOUR DEFENDANT in the captioned cause, and moves the court to set

a reasonable bond, and in support of this motion would show the following:

I.

Defendant was arrested on December 15, 2002, and is presently confined in the Harris

County Jail by virtue of the complaint filed in the above cause now pending in the 999th District

Court of Harris County, Texas, charging him with possession of un-American thoughts. As of

the date of filing of this motion, the case has not been indicted.

II.

Bail is presently set at $100,000.00.

III.

If bail were set, Defendant could make a bail in the amount of $2,000.00, which amount

is reasonable to secure Defendant's presence in court.

IV.

Defendant has been held under $100,000.00 bail since the date of his arrest. Unless bail

is set in a reasonable amount, he will be forced to remain in jail pending disposition of this case.

The State has not been ready for trial during this period.
 WHEREFORE, Defendant prays that the bail be reduced to $2,000.00, or some

other amount that the Court determines is reasonable, and that Defendant be released

from custody upon satisfaction of said bail.

Respectfully submitted,
