ARK. APP.] 317 James Perry MOUNT v. STATE of Arkansas CA CR 86-139 720 S.W.2d 721 Court of Appeals of Arkansas Opinion delivered December 10, 1986 PER CURIAM. Appellant's motion to set bond is denied. MELVIN MAYFIELD, Judge, concurring. I concur in the court's denial of the appellant's motion to set bond in the above matter. Under Rules of Criminal Procedure 36.5-36.7, persons convicted of crimes other than capital offenses may be admitted to bail by the trial court under the conditions provided by those rules. The motion in this case does not tell us whether the appellant has applied to the trial court for the setting of a bail bond under the provisions of the above rules. Undoubtedly, this matter should first be presented to the trial court. Therefore, I agree that the present motion should be denied.
 You are being directed to the most recent version of the statute which may not be the version considered at the time of the judgment.
