Conditions of Release
If you are released on bond, it is essential that you follow all conditions set by the court. Violating any condition can result in your bond being revoked and being placed in custody.
Bond conditions are set by the court and may be modified only by a judge. If you are unsure about any condition, contact your attorney immediately.
Missing a court date can result in a warrant for your arrest.
If you cannot make a scheduled court appearance for any reason, contact your attorney immediately — before the court date.
Important Reminders While on Bond
- Report to pretrial services as directed
- Attend all court dates — missing a court date can result in a warrant for your arrest
- Do not travel outside your allowed area without permission
- Do not use illegal drugs — you may be tested
- Do not possess any firearms or weapons
- Stay in contact with your attorney and respond to their calls
- Do not commit any new offenses
- Follow all specific conditions set by the judge (e.g., curfew, electronic monitoring, substance abuse treatment)
Pretrial Services
If you are on bond, you will likely be supervised by the U.S. Pretrial Services Office. Your pretrial services officer is responsible for monitoring your compliance with bond conditions. Cooperate fully with your pretrial services officer and keep all scheduled appointments.
