More details to this question:
I found a $5000 lottery ticket. They violated me under the condition that pay a $1000 between May and September or I do 90 days in jail? However, I only made part of the payment so put me in the work house on work release and I left. If I pay the full restitution, will that resolve the case or will they add a new charge by me leaving?

No, I would bet that they will pursue another violation now for absconding from the workhouse. And yes, you can be charged with another crime - escape from custody. Get a lawyer retained right away.
