What does it mean to abscond?

  1. To escape legally

  2. To hide from court jurisdiction to avoid confinement

  3. To plead guilty

  4. To demand a lawyer

The correct answer is: To hide from court jurisdiction to avoid confinement

Abscond means to escape or flee, often secretly, in order to avoid being caught or held responsible for something. In this context, options C and D are incorrect because they refer to taking legal action after being caught or accused. Option A is incorrect because "escape legally" does not accurately describe the meaning of abscond, since the act of absconding implies an intent to avoid consequences or responsibility. Therefore, option B is the most appropriate and accurate definition of abscond.
