Discrimination against 'felons' is a tender subject. There is no uniform answer.

In some states, felons who have served their terms may not receive student loans, may not vote, may not receive welfare aid and so forth.

The condominium board should be able to rely upon a background check or upon a statement within your governing documents to justify this discrimination.

For example, the board may interested in keeping some kinds of convicted felons out of the community.

Your first question should be to the board, from whom you can request documented justification for denying this potential buyer the opportunity to purchase a unit.

You can also seek legal counsel in your state to determine a felon's legal rights.

Selling a house with a barn that was not approved by homeowners association?

Given the disclosure requirements of your state when selling property that is part of an association -- in Washington State, this is called 'Form 17', which essentially protects the real estate professionals -- you may be required to document any permission requested/ given or denied; lack of permission requested, because it was not required and so forth. The bottom line is this: don't try to hide the fact that the barn was not approved by the association from a potential buyer.

Work with your board and your association manager to most fully understand why access is being denied.

Can you bail someone out of jail if they murdered someone?

Yes. If they have been charged but not convicted, the person can petition the court to set a bond to allow them to be free while awaiting trial. If bond is denied, the defendant will remain in custody until trial. If the trial results in a conviction, the convicted would then serve out the sentence. If the trial does not result in a conviction, the convicted would then be released.
