What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maine
Hi everyone. I am wondering about charges added after bail has been posted. For example, say you are pulled over and arrested for possession. You go get booked, and make bail and leave. But say, for example, the police tested a substance they found in your car and the lab determines it is another, different illegal drug. But, you have already posted bail and left before that charge is added. How would you be notified of the addition?
I very much appreciate anyone's help!
