A quick definition of ROR:

Term: ROR

Definition: ROR stands for Release on Recognizance. This means that a person who has been arrested can be released from jail without having to pay bail, as long as they promise to show up for their court date. It's like a promise to be responsible and follow the rules, so they can go home and wait for their trial.

A more thorough explanation:

ROR

ROR stands for "Release on Recognizance." This means that a person who has been arrested can be released from jail without having to pay bail, as long as they promise to show up for their court date.

For example, if someone is arrested for a minor offense like shoplifting, they may be eligible for ROR. Instead of having to pay bail, they can be released from jail and allowed to go home, as long as they promise to show up for their court date.

Another example would be if someone is arrested for a more serious offense, like drug possession. Even in this case, they may still be eligible for ROR if they have a clean criminal record and are not considered a flight risk.

ROR is a way for people who have been arrested to avoid having to pay bail and spend time in jail while they wait for their court date. It is only available in certain situations, and the decision to grant ROR is up to the judge. The examples show how ROR can be used in different situations, depending on the severity of the offense and the person's criminal history.

"But I also want to end on this note. Don't be afraid of being wrong. And what I mean by that is, being wrong about a school. I applied to Princeton coming out of high school and didn't get in. I ended up going to Vanderbilt. I could never see myself having gone anywhere but Vanderbilt." -Spivey
