    Bail& Probation
    I live in orange, California. If someone is on felony probation and has violated their probation by not checking in and gets arrested can they bail out?

    Hello n:

    Generally, no. Probation violation is NOT a crime, in and of itself, so bail is not available... Bail is a Constitutional right because we PRESUME the arrested person is INNOCENT..

    A violator of probation isn't an innocent civilian.
