ROMMEL JAMES Y CHAMP,
Accused.

MOTION TO POST AND REDUCE BAIL

COMES NOW Accused, ROMMEL JAMES Y CHAMP, through the

undersigned counsel and unto this Honorable Court most respectfully states that:

1. Accused is charged with the above-entitled crime before this

Honorable Court;

2. On 03 April 2023, Accused file a Motion to Post Bail for his

temporary release pending the grant of his Application for Probation. On the
same date, the Honorable Court granted said motion and allowed Accused to
post a bond;

3. The bail recommended for the provisional liberty of Accused is set at

Forty Thousand Pesos (PhP/40,000.00);

5. However, due to financial difficulties, Accused would not be able to

post the whole aforesaid bail amount as he will only rely on the financial
assistance of his family and friends. Further, Accused is an indigent as evidenced
by his Certificate of Indigency issued by Barangay Bayanan, Muntinlupa City
dated 12 April 2023 (attached hereto as Annex “1”);

6. Accused pleads the kind indulgence of the Honorable Court to allow

him to post bail at a reduced amount equivalent to Fifty Percent (50%) of
the recommended bail bond or Twenty Thousand Thousand Pesos (PhP
20,000.00);

7. Should the reduction be granted and Accused is ultimately allowed

provisional liberty, he undertakes to be present in all future proceedings before
the Honorable Court
PRAYER

WHEREFORE, premises considered, herein accused most respectfully

moves and prays that Accused be allowed to post bail at a reduced amount
equivalent to Fifty Percent (50%) of the recommended bail bond or
Twenty Thousand Thousand Pesos (PhP 20,000.00).
Respectfully Submitted.
