Crooked lobbyist Todd Howe was released from jail Thursday after a Manhattan judge agreed to free him until his Nov. 2 sentencing for Albany corruption.

Howe — the star witness in a pair of bid-rigging and pay-to-play corruption cases that hit close to Gov. Andrew Cuomo — has been in the clink since February.

He previously pleaded guilty to eight felonies related to the corruption schemes and other fraud but was released on bond when he agreed to cooperate with investigators — a deal that led to the conviction of Cuomo aide Joseph Percoco.

Then Howe dropped the bombshell in court that he tried to skip out on a $600 Waldorf Astoria bill he racked up in 2016 while cutting the plea deal — and he was jailed for defying the conditions of the deal, which included he not break any more laws.

“Mr. Howe you’re getting a second chance. Don’t mess it up,” Judge Valerie Caproni warned him in Manhattan Federal Court Thursday. “Actually more like your third or fourth chance. But seriously everyone’s patience is worn out. Don’t mess it up.”

Howe tried to dispute the $600 hotel bill, which he paid by credit card, but admitted in court it was an illegitimate claim.

Caproni on Thursday ordered he keep only one credit card and that he cannot make purchases over $1,000 unless they are related to living, medical or emergency expenses.

“Do not take out another credit card. I think any credit card company that would give you a credit card should be investigated but that’s another matter,” the judge said.

The disgraced lobbyist plans to go back to Idaho, where he has been working as a golf course groundskeeper. The judge limited his travel to New York and Idaho, ordered he retain all cellphone records, and said he must submit to credit checks to ensure he keeps only one charge card.

Howe smirked as he was led out of courtroom shackled at his hands, waist and ankles.

He faces faces a maximum of 130 years in prison when he’s sentenced on Nov. 2.
