He will have trial in both counties. If he is found guilty on the first one then it is up to the judge there if he stays out.

As long as the respective judges do not revoke his bonds, he can stay out of jail until his trials.

His bail will probably be revoked in both counties meaning he will remain incarcerated for the duration of his cases. Make sure he is represented by an experienced criminal defense attorney.

He needs an attorney and being arrested in the second county is most probable a violation of the bail terms in the first.
