question about being bailed form jail
 

So i'm sure a few of you have been arrested thrown in jail and gotten out on bail.. question is can you travel out of state if your out on bail? my buddy wants to come visit me and goto d.c buttt he is out on bail due to a stupid case thats going to get dropped.


can you travel on bail? no bail bonds used just like a 500 dollar bail.

Pretty sure. I would call the county court and ask.
Bail is bassicly just assurance that you will show up for court

There can be all kinds of conditions... he should ask his lawyer:)

he was charged with resisting arrest and harassment to an officer :P

That's the most logical..it all depends on the charges I would assume

It should say on his release form

call and ask..this is one time that you DONT wanna take advice from GFY'ers

Being that I work closely with the bail industry in Oklahoma, all of the forms we make our clients sign to get them out of jail include asking your bail bondsman permission to leave the county where you were bailed out of jail. If he/she gives you the permission to leave the state, they will require that you give them an address where you will be staying, a telephone number where you can be reached 24/7, and probably ask you to call and check in daily. We're strict here basically because I hate having to go out and bring your stupid ass back to jail for failing to do what we ask. We put our money on the line to get you out of jail for pocket change. You can fuck your lawyer off all day long, but don't piss off your bail bondsman, for he has the power to revoke your bond and toss your ass back in jail. :)

Totally depends. If it was a seriously charge though they would have been pretty clear about the travel terms.
