When is release possible?

When the grounds for detention fall away, when bail is granted, or when the case is closed or decided.

Release may come with conditions, which we explain before you accept.

What do we do?

We make the application, follow it through, and handle the practical steps once release is ordered.

That includes confirming the paperwork and that any conditions are understood.

What happens after release?

The case continues, so you must meet any conditions and attend each date.

We stay on the file and set out what is next.

What should I do first?

  1. Confirm the release order

    Written confirmation of what has been decided.

  2. Understand each condition

    Reporting, travel limits or surrender of documents.

  3. Keep the dates

    Missing one can undo the release.

  4. Stay in touch with us

    We track the next stage.

Frequently asked questions

Does release end the case?

No. It lifts the detention. The case continues until it is decided.

Can release be reversed?

Yes, if conditions are breached or circumstances change. We explain how to avoid that.
