This is a case of someone deciding they didn't want to comply with a judge's order.

Imagine this, the Iberia Parish Sheriff's Office says they are now searching for 24-year-old Tiequin Allen after his appearance in court.

Allen decided he did not like the thought of being taken into custody, so when the court ordered him to be detained, he just took off running. Officials are still searching for this man.
