No Bond Warrant
My question involves an arrest warrant from the State of: Az
Probation violation warrant for a misdemeanor drug possession. Under Az law is not eligible for bond. Has anyone ever dealt with one of these using an attorney or any other way which allowed the person whom had the arrest warrant to quash the warrant somehow without appearing or to turn themselves in and have bond issued within 24-48 hours?

Re: No Bond Warrant
If you have an attorney, s/he can contested a no bond hold before a judge. But if the judge upholds it, you'll need to turn yourself in. At that time, a bond hearing will be scheduled, or you'll be held until trial.

Re: No Bond Warrant
What I normally do in that situation is to call the prosecutor and see whether he/she will agree to a signature or some type of bond. We present it to the judge who will usually go along with the agreement. The client then turns himself in and bonds out with a court date.
In some cases you may be able to reach an agreement where the judge will agree to recall the arrest warrant based upon the client's promise to appear in court at a future date.
