There would not be any limitation on the resulting warrant. The warrant will be active until you are arrested or it is canceled by the judge.

Is it a felony to jump bail on a misdemeanor charge?
Generally no. In most cases, failing to appear for court while out on bail does not lead to additional charges, it simply revokes the bond and leads to a bench warrant.Additional: . . . not to mention one highly agitated bailbondsman chasing you down.

How can you avoid losing your money if you post bail for someone and they jump bail?
You can't, it is forfeited to the court - that's what bail is all about. The mone is put up to guarantee the defendants appearance. If he doesn't appear,..... bye-bye bond money. Unless you've already experienced this betrayal by the person you posted for, it is always best to engage the services of a bail bondsman.
How lucrative is the bail bonding business?
Good. They make 10% if every body shows up for court. Unfortunately some guys try to jump bail land skip out. That's where dog the bounty hunter comes into the picture.
What is payment of bail supposed to guarantee?
Bail is imposed to guarantee the person will show up to the next and all subsequent court dates. However, many criminals "jump bail" (become "bail jumpers") and then, Bounty Hunters must search for them to re-arrest the criminal. At that point, a judge might revoke the previous bail OR impose an even higher bail amount. Bail imposition also has to do with the over-crowding of our jail systems. Without bail, charged persons stay in jail (not prison) until they are found guilty, when they are then moved to a prison to spend their sentences. Most charged persons without bail can sit in county jail for 1 to 2 years before their case comes to trial. So bail is designed to help reduce jail populations while also helping to give the person freedom from jail until proven guilty.
Can you be tried on a felony charge in absentia while out on bond?
It would be very unusual, but I'm sure it has been done. You would have had to jump bond however.

Is it true that bail is a mechanism that defendants use to avoid advancing into the later stages of the criminal justice process?
No its not true.... Bail is the option for a person to pledge or deposit an asset with the court to get temporary freedom after they have been arrested.Bail is usually in the form of cash pledged either by the defendant,a family member,or a secure bond posted by a bail bondsmen or in less severe cases a defendant can be granted bail simply on their own recognisance..(promise to appear in court) Bail is granted on the understanding that the person will follow all the conditions of that bail set forth by the court,and appear in court for all the stages of the process from the initial arraignment, hearings,the trial and sentencing... The only thing a defendant can avoid by getting bail is that they do not have to remain in jail until their court case is concluded which at times could take several months depending on the length of the process... A person who receives bail will still go through the entire process of the criminal justice system....even if the defendant decides to jump bail and run away,they will only delay the justice process,because the court will issue a warrant and the person will become a wanted fugitive... They avoid nothing, some have even been captured, tried and convicted for their crimes decades later....
Is it logically impossible for a cow to jump over the moon?
