In a significant ruling during the morning docket on September 16, 2025, Judge Stephanie Boyd of the 187th District Court set a bond of $7,500 for Willie Contreras, who is facing a motion to revoke his probation. This decision comes after a thorough review of Contreras's criminal history and current circumstances.

Contreras, who has been on community supervision since 2021 for a drug-related offense, appeared in court to address concerns regarding his compliance with probation terms. During the proceedings, he confirmed his employment in home construction and renovation, stating that he has two children who depend on him financially. Notably, he denied any current mental health issues or substance abuse, despite his past conviction for possession of cocaine.

The court's decision to set the bond at $7,500 reflects the seriousness of Contreras's previous failures to report to probation, including a failure to appear in court in 2021. The bond amount is significantly higher than his initial bond of $2,500, indicating the court's concern over his compliance and the need for stricter monitoring. Additionally, the court ordered partial GPS monitoring for employment purposes, waiving associated fees to support his reintegration into the community.

The next court date is scheduled for September 25, 2025, where further proceedings will take place regarding Contreras's probation status. This ruling underscores the court's commitment to balancing accountability with support for individuals navigating the complexities of the justice system.
