Jailed City Court Judge Leticia Astacio has a bail hearing set for Wednesday afternoon at 2:00.
Astacio’s attorney, Gregory Salmon, says he sought and was granted the hearing, 24 hours after Judge Astacio was sent to jail after being arraigned on seven alleged violations of her probation. It will be before Judge William Coker, not Judge Stephen Aronson who declined to set bail Monday.
One question to be decided is whether Astacio is eligible to be given bail since she’s already been convicted on a drunken driving charge.
