My friend was caught driving he is considered a habitual driver (but the charges are about 8 yrs old). He's also on county papers. He went to court today for his first violation and his bond is set at 50,000 why is it so high and what’s going to happen to him?

I assume when you say "habitual driver' you mean habitual offender. If he is caught violating his probation he has a serious matter. Why the high bond and what could happen I can only guess. He needs to immediately retain an experienced and responsible criminal attorney.

Was he eligible to reinstate? Was there a DUI on the new charge? Was the probation for a felony or misdo?
