    Default Conditions of Release on Bond

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Texas

    One more thing in my case (2nd dwi). As I saw a county probation officer, he asked me where's my Conditions of Release from Bond form that I signed. I told him that I never received one, so he called the city where I got arrested. They stated that I didn't have any, even though, the judge in the morning told me that I had a $2,500 bond and mentioned the interlock device (got it installed 2 days after I got out). It's been past 11 days and the probation officer doesn't have a Conditions of the Bond for me, so he told me to basically use the generic one. My question is does this have any impact on my case? Especially if I was to ask for trial?

    Thanks for any advice.

    Does what have an impact on your case? A missing form? No, it's irrelevant to the continuing prosecution.

    But misconduct by you during pretrial release could affect you, particularly in relation to sentencing, so I suggest either finding out if a copy of the form is in the court file and abiding by the terms of your release, or by abiding by the standard terms pending clarification by the court.

    Copy of the Release of Bond is not in County court. The arresting city just stated that I didn't have one. My attorney has stated that the city will within 10-days provide one to the County, but they haven't. Either case the generic form of that was provided by my attorney and the County officer is what I'm going by.

    Always, always keep the judge happy. He has the final say while you're out on bond. Your attorney should be able to handle this.
