Bail set for Uma Thurman stalker

New York - Uma Thurman's stalker has a chance at getting out of jail while he awaits trial on charges of trying to contact her again.

Jack Jordan's lawyers said it's unclear whether he can post the $250 000 cash bail or $500 000 bond a Manhattan judge set on Wednesday. Jordan had been held without bail since his latest arrest last month at his family's home.

The former psychiatric patient was told not to try to contact the Academy Award-winning actress for five years after his 2008 stalking and harassment conviction. But prosecutors say he called her again on October 29 and October 30.

He has pleaded not guilty to charges including stalking and criminal contempt of court. Prosecutors say the 39-year-old told police the calls were drunken mistakes.
