Many people in Colorado charged with criminal acts are placed on bond. As a condition of those bonds – often posted by family members or friends – a judge will most often place conditions on those bonds that reflect the nature of the crimes themselves… examples include – no alcohol consumption, no non-prescribed drugs, no contact with the victims of witnesses, urinalysis and breath tests… and similar conditions. Other conditions always include no committing new crimes
This article is intended to explain the danger to the person on bond – IF they violate any or all of those conditions.
Here is the relevant law in Colorado.
It is important to note two things:
Most importantly there is NO requirement that a Defendant be advised that violation of a bond condition is chargeable as a new crime. Therefore, the first time a Defendant may hear of this law is when he or she is arrested in the new case.
If you are on bond – make certain you follow the conditions of your release exactly as ordered.
