$10,000 Bond Set for Courtney Flores; Judge Orders No Contact With Dollar General
Summary
Judge Stephanie Boyd set a $10,000 bond for Courtney Flores after the defense requested bond; the court added a no-contact condition directed at Dollar General stores and reset the case for March 24.
The 187th District Court set bond at $10,000 for Courtney Flores in cause 20239341 and imposed a condition barring contact with the complainant identified in the indictment.
On the record, Judge Stephanie Boyd said the reason a bond had not been set earlier was a failure to appear on Jan. 28; the defendant told the court she had a family bereavement (her brother’s death). After discussion, the court followed the parties’ agreement to set bond at $10,000. The court identified the alleged complainant as Dollar General and instructed Flores she must have no contact with Dollar General stores.
The court provided that the case should be reset for March 24 for further processing; the transcript does not record additional pretrial rulings in this excerpt.
Defense counsel and the court discussed discovery and confirmed the defendant had been informed of court procedures and the consequences of failing to appear. The court warned that bond exists to create an incentive to appear and urged counsel and the defendant to communicate with the court or the attorney if an emergency arises.
