As part of her bond obligation, she is not permitted to leave the jurisdiction of the court without prior consent of the court. Leaving the jurisdiction without consent of the court will result in the bond being revoked and you remanded to jail for contempt. which carries up to 6 months in jail. If you desire to leave, you must petition the court for consent to leave the jurisdiction.
