Re: Bond violattion

It depends on the nature of the charges on which he was convicted. If they were felonies, conviction of a bail bond violation will make him ineligible for probation or a suspended sentence and will add at least a year to his sentence. If the charges were misdemeanors, a conviction will add at least six months.

To convict, the state must prove that he either knowingly failed to appear at some proceeding (FTA), or knowingly violated a condition of the bond.
