Court relieves bonding company after out‑of‑jurisdiction hold in Weston case
The court granted a request from defense counsel to be relieved of bond obligations for John Weston after learning the defendant is incarcerated in a federal facility in New York and that a hold has been placed by another jurisdiction. The court relied on statutory authority for release of the bonding company under those circumstances.

Defense counsel explained Weston remains incarcerated in federal custody in New York and requested that the bonding company be released from its obligations. The prosecutor confirmed a hold had been placed on the defendant. The judge noted that, by statute, a bonding company is entitled to be released when the defendant is taken into custody and a hold exists in another jurisdiction, and the court granted the request.

The clerk was directed to enter an order releasing the bonding company and to reflect the change in the case record; no other changes to the docket were recorded on the court's public record during the hearing.
