Crimes Act 1961

Procedure - Bail

318: When bail not allowable

You could also call this:

“The law used to say when you couldn't get out of jail before your trial, but this rule doesn't exist anymore.”

This section of the law used to talk about when bail was not allowed. However, it no longer applies. On 1 January 2001, the government removed this section from the Crimes Act 1961. They did this through a different law called the Bail Act 2000. Now, if you want to know about when bail is not allowed, you need to look at the Bail Act 2000 instead of this part of the Crimes Act.
