Q: My husband was released out on bond we had to put our car up. we heard that he could be revoked without cause?
Then we would lose our transport and then he would be right back in jail. Is this true?
A:
A Bonding Agent can "come off" a bond without cause. This may happen if there is some question regarding whether the Defendant will appear as required. If this happens the person will be remanded back into custody. This will also result in any attached collateral being released.
A judge can "revoke" a bond for cause. This is typically a new arrest, violating a no-contact order or such. If you have an attorney, you should discuss this with your attorney.
