However, in 2000, federal legislation purported to withhold highway funding from any states that didn't adopt a limit of 0.08 BAC as a threshold for DUI arrests, essentially creating a nationwide DUI limit at this lower level.

Bail for Boating Under the Influence

Safety should always be a priority when you are out on the water. This cannot be done if you are unable to operate your water vessel properly and cannot make sound decisions.

Being under the influence of alcohol or a narcotic while you are operating a water vessel is illegal and can result in serious ramifications. In the state of Utah, the laws prohibiting boating under the influence are just as strictly enforced as the laws prohibiting driving under the influence. It is an activity that can have grave legal and personal repercussions for you and other people out on the water. If you need the services of a bail bond company because you, a family member or friend have been charged with boating under the influence in Utah, don’t hesitate to contact Bad Boys Bail Bonds.

How Bail Works in Utah

What is Bail?

When a person is arrested and taken into custody, the court system will set a date and time for a trial. This can be weeks or even months away. This can mean sitting in jail for the entire wait until the trial. However, the U.S. justice system allows for some defendants to be released by paying money as a financial guarantee to the courts as sort of an insurance policy that they will show up for their trial. This exchange of money is known as bail.

How Immigration Bail Bonds Work

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is the unit of the government that arrests and detains anyone found violating U.S. immigration law. In order for the detainee to be released until his or her court date, an immigration bond must be obtained. Detainees must first meet the qualifications before they can receive an immigration bail bond, though, which we will go over in this article. In addition, the ICE can release the detainee based on what is known as personal recognizance, which is a promise they make saying they'll be present for all court appearances and will not partake in illegal activities while out on bail, and it doesn't cost anything. Whenever the immigration judge (or the ICE) sets a required bond amount, however, it's time to think about obtaining an immigration bond. It is the job of an immigration bail bondsman to help detainees through the process of obtaining one and to post bail for them.
