Read a random definition: vadimonium

A quick definition of bail-jumping:

Bail-jumping: When someone is arrested and released on bail, they promise to come back to court for their trial. If they don't show up, it's called bail-jumping. It's a crime and they can get in trouble for it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Bail-jumping is a criminal offense where a person fails to appear in court after being released on bail. This means that they have broken the agreement they made with the court to attend all their court hearings.

Example: John was arrested for stealing a car and was released on bail. He promised to attend all his court hearings but failed to show up for the last one. This means that John has committed the crime of bail-jumping.

Explanation: The example illustrates how bail-jumping occurs when a person who has been released on bail fails to attend their court hearings. In this case, John was released on bail but failed to show up for his last court hearing, which is a violation of his bail agreement.
