Birmingham, AL asked in Criminal Law for Alabama

Q: My son has a heroin habit. I sent him to rehab but he relapsed after a few weeks. I refused to enable him

by giving him money. He resorted to robbing someone using a toy gun. I put up property to get him out of jail. He is still doing the drug, lying etc. My question is can I revoke the bond & have him put back in jail without losing my property?

A: Good for you. Sometimes tough love is hard. Yes, if you put up a property bond, you may go to the court and ask that it be removed. I have had this happen on a couple of cases where a parent put up a cash bond and beleived the child might leave the jurisdiction.

Please call me if I can help. Ingram Law LLC 205-335-2640 Joseph A. INgram
