surrender to custody
To give oneself into the custody of the court or police at an appointed time and place. It is the primary condition of all releases on bail to surrender to custody; in order to achieve this, the court may attach conditions to the bail, such as the provision of a surety or restrictions on movement. Failure to surrender to custody is an offence (Bail Act 1976 s 6: see absconding). The police may arrest without warrant anyone whom they reasonably believe is not going to surrender to custody or anyone whom they have been informed by a surety (who wishes to be relieved of his undertaking) is not going to surrender. |
