Can a judge revoke my PR bond when I plead at my pre-trial?
I am a single mother of 2. I work full-time and have 4 jobs. I am pregnant. I am currently attending outpatient treatment weekly and have not gotten in any trouble since my arrest. I am not trying to get out of jail, but wish to have the chance to continue to work and support my family. If my bond gets revoked I will lose my jobs and probably my children. I would like to be sentenced to jail, so I have the opportunity to get work release so while in jail, I can support them. I have a prior DUI 2 years ago and successfully completed everything imposed. No PV’s and all fines paid. What are my chances of him extending my bond until I get sentenced.

If you presently have a bond in place there is a good chance that it will continue to remain in force until at least you are sentenced since tou have not mentioned anything that would possibly cause its revocation.
If you do not have a criminal defense attorney at this point in time it may be very well in your best interests to at least consult with one given the serious situation you are in as well as the responsibilities that you have as to your family.
