E.D.N.C. Local Criminal Rule 58.2
Forfeiture of Collateral in Lieu of Appearance
As provided in Fed. R. Crim. P. 58(d)(1), a person who is charged with a petty
offense or other misdemeanor, whether it is a violation of a federal statute or
regulation, or a violation of an assimilated state law, may be permitted, in lieu of
appearance, to post collateral for the offense, waive appearance before the court,
and consent to forfeiture of the collateral. The offenses for which collateral may
be posted and forfeited in lieu of appearance and the amount of collateral to be
posted are set out in written schedules approved by the court, on file with the clerk,
and posted on the court’s website. Collateral may not be forfeited in lieu of
appearance with respect to any offense for which appearance is specified as
mandatory in a schedule or any offense the citation for which specifies that
appearance is required.
