Interpretation of ~
General Order No. 107 ) ORDER OF THE CHIEF JUDGE
---------)
When General Order No. 107 was adopted by the
Court, it was the intention of the Court to provide a
bail forfeiture plan which would make appearances by
persons charged with certain offenses unnecessary if such
persons preferred to post bail by mail and forfeit the same
to avoid the inconvenience of an appearance in answer to a
citation. This program was intended to be used by all
agencies issuing citations for such violations.
On January 10, 1972, at a regular meeting of the
Judges it was resolved that General Order No. 107 should
be amended on the original by the Clerk as indicated below.
Accordingly, in conformity with the said resolution,
IT IS ORDERED that the first three lines of said
order shall be interpreted and applied as though the word
and letter which are shown stricken below had been omitted:
"Persons charged with violation of any
offense listed on Exhibit A attached hereto,
whether originating under t~~ applicable
federal statute or regulation~ or • • • "
-2
The use of the bail forfeiture procedure provided for in
General Order No. 107 is available to all federal agencies
authorized to issue citations for such offenses.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk shall place a
copy of this order in the book of General Orders following
General Order No. 107 as indicating his authority to make
the change indicated on the original order.
DATED: January 12, 1972.
