Rule 228. CONDITIONS; BAIL; ARREST OF DEFENDANT

The arrest of the defendant on whom conditions have been imposed, or who has furnished bail or deposit shall be ordered in the following cases:

(a) When there has been a breach of any of the conditions imposed, or of the conditions of the undertaking or deposit.

(b) When his bailors, or either of them are dead or insufficient, or have moved from Puerto Rico.

(c) When additional conditions have been imposed, or the amount of bail has been increased.

(d) When the order granting conditional freedom or bail on appeal to the Supreme Court has been set aside.

If the order decreeing the arrest is entered upon such terms that the defendant should have to submit to new conditions or should have the right to furnish a new bond under these rules, the new conditions or the amount of the new bond as the case may be shall be fixed in said order. The order shall state the grounds for the arrest; it shall provide that any marshall, policeman or other authorized official to whose custody he would have been remanded if no conditions had been imposed or no bail had been originally furnished, until he is legally released from jail.
