It's hit or miss. If he bails out, the parole agent may let him stay out and may not violate him if he beats the case. However, he could end up bailing out and getting rearrested by the parole agent.
Also, your friend has a duty to tell his parole officer that he has been arrested. He will get Brownie points if he tells the parole officer before a hold is put on him.
