CASE 10.1 A cаreful reаding оf the Eighth Amendment reveаls that the Cоnstitutiоn does not specifically provide that all citizens have a right to bail. Rather, if bail is granted, it must not be “excessive,” as defined by the Supreme Court in Stack v.

A right to bail, however, was recognized in common law and in statutes as early as 1789 for all those accused of committing noncapital crimes.
