Absolutely. It's in the discretion of the court.

It depends upon the conditions of your bond. A bond has two purposes: 1) to protect the community and 2) to prevent flight/guarantee your appearance in court.

Part of the means of guaranteeing your appearance in court is the cash part of your bond. If you went through a bondsman, the cash part disappears but the bondsman becomes the guarantee of your appearance and gains certain powers ot enforce that appearance. There may be other conditions (e.g. some type of electronic monitoring, surrender of your passport) also designed to guarantee your appearance.

As far as protecting the community, there may be conditions like no drinking, random UAs, staying away from victims.

A judge can't revoke your bond for no reason. However, a judge can revoke your bond if you violate a condition of your bond or if there is evidence suggesting that you might be planning to run. In addition, once you have been found guilty (if you are found guilty) that fact by itself allows the court to revoke the bond and increase the amount (since the risk of flight is increased after trial).

Definitely. Any information that comes to light before the trial can be considered in whether the defendant presents a potential flight risk. Bail is not absolute.

Yes, they can revoke bail if they want. However, I have never heard of one doing so for no reason.

Yes, if he/she thinks you will be a flight risk or harm to self or others.
