Oram v. Colorado
Annotate this CaseIn this case, two bail-bonds agents were charged with second-degree burglary and felony menacing in pursuit of an alleged “bail jumper.” On appeal, Defendants Jason Oram and Devon Weinstein challenged the sufficiency of the evidence presented against them at trial and used the common law “bonding agent privilege” to excuse their actions. The Supreme Court found that no common law bonding agent privilege exists in Colorado, and that there was sufficient evidence to sustain the charges against Defendants. The Court affirmed the decision of the lower courts.
