PER CURIAM.
Petitioner, Oyebode Oyetunji, a pharmacist, was originally charged with one count of organized scheme to defraud, a first degree felony, and 174 counts of filing false Medicaid claims, third degree felonies. Petitioner’s bond was set at $250,000 on the first count and $10,000 for each of the 174 remaining counts. Petitioner moved to reduce his bond. After a full evidentiary hearing, the trial court denied the motion. Petitioner then filed a writ of habeas corpus in this court. According to the state’s response, the state has now filed a new information in which petitioner has been charged with one count of organized scheme to defraud and six counts of Medicaid Provider Fraud/Filing a False Claim. Thus, in accordance with the order, the bond is now $250,000 for the organized fraud charge and $60,000 for the other charges.
Considering the seriousness of the charges, the evidence of ability to pay, and the risk of flight, we deny the petition.
