What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania
Someone we have a protection order against violated it and they were thrown in jail with a $10,000 straight bond. can anyone tell me what a straight bond actually means. I know someone posted bail and now this person is already out. This protection order is still temporary with the final date being in a few weeks and the police had called prior to the protection order being served and told her to stay away and then she was served and still came on the property. is $10,000 a lot for that? i'm just wondering because I see in the paperwork for the protection order that she could be fined up to $1,000 so I'm just wondering why it would've been $10,000.
