What does a Habeas Corpus Bond guarantee?

Immediate release from jail
The payment of court costs
A jury trial for the detained
Legal representation for the detainee

The correct answer is: The payment of court costs

A Habeas Corpus Bond specifically deals with the legal principle of "habeas corpus," which is a writ requiring a person under arrest to be brought before a judge or into court. This bond essentially guarantees that if a person is detained unlawfully, their rights will be protected and that proper legal proceedings will follow to determine their legality of detention. In many cases, the bond serves to ensure that, should a court find that a detainee's rights have been violated or that they are being held without proper cause, the necessary fees or costs related to the court proceedings and their release will be covered. Therefore, it primarily relates to financial responsibility regarding court costs associated with the detainee's release rather than ensuring immediate release or legal representation. The other options do not align with the purpose of a Habeas Corpus Bond. Immediate release from jail is contingent on the court's ruling following the hearing, while a jury trial and legal representation pertain to other judicial rights and processes, not specifically tied to the bond itself.
