The deposit you leave at the courthouse that you get back when you attend trial.

  What you're talking about is called a 'bail bond'.

  Understood. I wasn’t talking about bail bonds. I was talking about remand.

    Systems without cash bail still have remand. It's reasonable to deem someone to dangerous or flighty to release. It's cruel to demand a legalized bribe for release.

      Fair point. I agree - this creates a 2 tier justice system.
