Cameron v. Eighth Judicial Dist. Court of State

By the Court, HARDESTY, J.:

*844Petitioner Timmie Cameron, Jr., challenges the district court's decision to increase his bail from $25,000 to $100,000, arguing that the district court lacked good cause to support the increase. Because the district court increased the bail after making an initial bail determination, it was required to make a finding of good cause under NRS 178.499(1) for the subsequent increase in bail. We conclude that the district court failed to engage in a meaningful analysis to determine whether good cause was shown, and therefore writ relief is warranted.
