Bond Violations
Violating bail conditions in domestic violence cases can lead to immediate consequences. Common violations include:
- Contacting the alleged victim despite a no-contact order
- Failing to appear in court
- Getting arrested for a new offense
- Violating curfews or GPS monitoring rules
Any violation can lead to bond revocation and re-arrest, so it’s crucial to follow all court orders exactly.

Domestic Violence Bail Bonds FAQs
Can someone accused of domestic violence get bail?
In many cases, yes—but it depends on the severity of the incident, prior history, and any threats made. A judge may also wait to set bail until a hearing occurs.
What is a no-contact order?
It’s a court order that prohibits the accused from contacting the alleged victim, either directly or through third parties. Violating it can lead to additional charges.
How much does bail typically cost for domestic violence charges?
Bail amounts vary widely depending on the charge’s severity, the defendant’s criminal history, and state laws. Some charges may result in higher bail or mandatory court hearings before release.
What should I do after posting bail?
Follow all court instructions, attend every hearing, and strictly comply with protective orders or other release conditions.
