The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

“This decision is not inconsistent with decisions recognizing an inherent power in the trial courts to grant bail where no statute or constitutional provision expressly authorizes or prohibits it.... [Where] the legislature has, however, specifically forbidden bail to those convicted of unclassified felonies and class A felonies[,] ... we hold that the trial court has no inherent authority to grant bail in derogation of [the statute].”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the dissente.g. Hosier v. State“[Martin and Dobrova] apply the general rule that the common law, i.e., a court’s power to declare the law, exists in the absence of a conflicting statute or court rule. See AS 01.10.010. [These decisions] recognize that legislative silence regarding availability of bail does not preclude a court from granting it.”
