Any person charged with an offense other than an offense exempted by Section 15-13-145, may be ordered released pending trial on judicial public bail upon the execution of an unsecured appearance bond in an amount specified by the judicial officer, unless the officer determines that a release will not reasonably assure the appearance of the person as required or the safety of any other persons or the community. If that determination is made, a judicial officer may either in lieu of, or in addition to, the above method of release, impose restrictions on the travel, association, or place of abode of the person during the period of release or any other conditions specified in Rule 7 of the Alabama Rules of Criminal Procedure on the actions of the defendant while on bail.
