As a condition of bond and/or pretrial diversion, as I am sure your lawyer told you already (obviously you already hired one given the serious lifetime effects of your charge -jail, fines, unemployability for life, loss of right to college aid and many government programs, and loss of a driver's license).

Yes, if the "somebody" has any type of pre-trial bond progarm. I recommend that you retain an attorney. See website for info on locating the right attorney: www.lawrencelewispc.com
