Re: Pr bonded and left to arizona
Yes, that is a violation of bond conditions (a new charge with mandatory jail) and your bond can be revoked. If the original charge is a felony, then it is a new felony with a minimum 1 year in prison. Not a good idea.
If you return and check in with pre-trial services, they might let it slide. I would not offer the information that I was out of state, since that is an admission. If it has been more than a couple weeks, then you will like lose the bond. If you miss a court date, you will definitely lose the bond.
