Ex parte Cardenas

Opinion by Justice Rodriguez

In prosecutions for capital murder, first-degree felony aggravated sexual assault, and first-degree felony burglary of a habitation with intent to commit a robbery, appellant Isaiah Cardenas, who was younger than eighteen years old at the time of the offenses, appeals from an order setting his pretrial bond. By two issues, Cardenas contends: (1) the trial court abused its discretion in setting his pretrial bond at $750,000; and (2) the trial court improperly considered hearsay evidence. We affirm.
