If you have been arrested<\/a> for a crime in Arizona, depending on the severity of your crime as well as your previous history, you will likely be released on bail by the judge before your trial. While out on bail you are not free to do anything that you like. In fact, when you are released on bail, there are certain rules and stipulations that the judge will require you to follow in order to remain out of jail.<\/p>\n The conditions for bail are different for each case, but they are usually based off of the particulars of your case. For example, if you were arrested for a drug possession, your bail conditions will require you to refrain from drug usage as well as being in the close vicinity of others who are using drugs.

This is a good thing seeing as committing another crime is far more severe than showing up late to court and it would be unfair if they had the same consequences.<\/p>\n If you violate the conditions of your bond, usually the first thing to happen is the judge will revoke your bond. From there the judge has several options:<\/p>\n Ultimately, violating your bail conditions will either result in the bond price increasing and your conditions of release becoming far more strict, or your bail will be revoked and you will be taken to jail where you will remain until your court date. An experienced<\/a> criminal defense attorney can assist you with obtaining fair bail conditions, but each time you violate your bail conditions your lawyer loses the leverage needed to obtain the best result for your case.<\/p>\nFour Types of Release in Arizona<\/h2>\n
