The penalties vary depending on the severity of the assault: Class C Misdemeanor: Up to a $500 fine. Class A Misdemeanor: Up to $4,000 in fines and/or up to one year in jail. Felony Assault: Penalties can range from 5 years to life in prison, depending on the degree of the assault and the circumstances.
No - if you signed the bond it doesn't matter whether you have a job or not - or whether the bondsman asked you if you did. You are liable as surety on the bond - having a job or not has nothing to do with your liability. Sorry.
If you can't make bail in Texas, you will stay in jail until you have served your sentence in full, have completely beaten your case through a not guilty verdict or dismissal, or until you are released on probation. To finally resolve a case, it can take anywhere from a few months to a few years.
