No Bond Warrant
A no-bond warrant (capias) means the judge has ordered detention without any release amount, typically on substantive VOPs, serious felonies, or when the defendant was on pretrial release when rearrested. The only path to release is a motion to set bond — arguing the warrant was improvidently issued, or that the facts support a bond under the constitutional right to reasonable pretrial release for non-capital charges. Speed matters: every day in custody pressures defendants into bad plea decisions.
