Bail

[Mitzi11]

My son On bail for suspect assault went to a friends who contacted his ex without him knowing police now want him to hand himself in what could happen?

Your question is very confusing. I have read it several times but I still can't understand what happened. What happened at the 'friends' house? Did your son assault the 'friend' for contacting the ex-wife??
What are the conditions of his bail ?

I am not that confused ....
here is my go ...New Judge who does this full time is around and may give chapter and verse

From the consumers point of view ( you, Mitzi ) you will have to get used to the contact-police-rearrest cycle which seems to be common in some of these cases
One neighbour used to have his girl friend ( whom he knew he shouldnt contact ) come up to him speak to him, and then report to the police that he had broken bail conditions

The neighbour was not able to process advice like - dont speak! walk in the opposite direction! - run away!
He used to go like "Hullo ven, Sharon, you good?"
and was re-arrested - in the cells - rehearing - let out
Eventually he did six weeks ( yup weeks) in prison for contempt which was peanuts considering what else he had done [previously tied up Sharon in a bedroom and wouldnt let her out - yeah sharon the one who used to ...]

Mitzi it looks as tho you too will be an on-looker on a series of drama scenes where people behave really stupidly and you can do nothing about it. If you KNOW the police want him ( and it is not third hand thro one of his so called friends or just Mrs Mopp chipping in her two penny worth) then he should hand himself in. I am not even sure it is worth hiring a lawyer

Here's the important part of PP's nonsensical gibberish:

''he should hand himself in''.

[ummmm]

Agree with Snags!!

[Peter Pedant]

I agree with me !

its gibberish that everyone understands - ho hum this is AB !

[Peter Pedant]

oops sorry - - nonsensical gibberish everyone understands.
my mistake

deffo a normal day on AB from the usual suspects ....

If he hands himself in he will probably be released after a few hours back to his registered address. But if he fails to hand himself in he WILL be arrested, and remanded in custody.

[Peter Pedant]

I thought so Ed
turn around time can be quite short tho'

and of course it depends on the facts....
