Legal Terms -Bind Over
An order from a magistrates' court or the Crown Court directing the subject to *maintain peace* or behave well, or an order from the Crown Court directing the subject to appear for judgment. In small instances, a bind over to maintain peace or behave well is frequently utilized as a case disposal strategy. In this arrangement, the prosecution consents to drop its charges in exchange for the defendant's consent to be bound over for a predetermined amount of time. During this time, the offender faces forfeiting a certain amount of money if he violates any of the terms of the order. An alternative to punishment in the Crown Court is a bind over to come up for judgment, in which the accused consents to be bound by specific terms after being found guilty. The offender will be summoned back before the court and given a penalty if he violates any of the terms.
