Criminal

We dont use the term "commitment papers" here in california:

But here in California, generally speaking:

If this is part of a plea agreement if you do not want to the plea agreement you go to trial.

If this is a promise to surrender and you will not sign it, you will be taken into custody.

I don't practice law in Washington, but here are some general legal principles which should apply.

If you have been convicted of a crime, and you are being offered probation, a term of probation could include that you serve a jail sentence. If you refuse to obey the terms of probation (for example, if you refuse to sign papers necessary to be committed to the jail sentence), the court has the power to refuse to grant you probation, and to sentence you to the maximum sentence allowed for the offense.

Consult your attorney from your case, or another experienced criminal defense lawyer in your community for legal advice.
