NEBBIA

CONDITIONS

A Nebbia hearing is ordered upon a defendant by a judge to justify all premiums for the bail bond and the coursing of the premium and collateral.

Most Nebbia conditions are ordered on various drug, criminal and financial crimes. Basically, the Court may impose a Nebbia hold as a requirement prior to the release of a Defendant from jail.

A Nebbia hearing is named after the case involving U. S. vs. Nebbia, 357 F.2d 303 (C.A.N.Y. 1966). Even though the Nebbia holds originated in the Federal Courts, the State courts are also applying the Nebbia holds through Florida Statute 903.046.

The Nebbia hold requires whomever is posting the bond to provide proof that the funds for posting the premium and collateral are from legitimate legal means.

The purpose of the Nebbia hold is to prevent someone from posting a bond from funds acquired by illegal means, such as drug trafficking, conspiracy, fraudulent transactions, money laundering or theft.

A hearing may be required in order to provide testimony as to the source of the funds.

During the Nebbia hearing, the burden of proof is on the defendant to prove that the funds and/or collateral came from a legitimate source.

Testimony, accounting documents, tax returns, banking records and business records are a few things a court may consider in determining that the source of the funds are legitimate.

Once the court is satisfied, either through a hearing or an agreement between the attorneys and the judge, the Court can remove the Nebbia hold and allow the defendant to bond out of jail.
