how long does it take for the judge to look over the bond reduction thats has been filed

Question

how long does it take for the judge to look over the bond reduction thats has been filed



Answer

Two minutes? If a lawyer files a motion to reduce bond, the lawyer generally discusses it with the prosecutor and then with the judge - usually the same day it is filed. If the judge is inclined to reduce the bond, generally s/he would state that position right then. If not, then the lawyer would ask for a bond reduction / writ hearing.
