OK when Den set him up and he had to go on the run from cops and then came back with Grant who also was on the run from cops!

My question is: why has the law not caught up with them? Grant comes back seemingly whenever he wants without any fear of being caught

Phill just came back and their was no mention of the fact that the cops were after him

Have I missed somthing or have the writers just ignored this flaw in the storyline?

Grant threatened the security guard who was the only witness to to the robbery so he retracted his statment and the police had no case hence Phil being released. It was a bit silly. Grant disappeard to Rio with money from some scam or other but I don't think the police were ever looking for him.

He also persuaded the Police that they had not caught him red handed and arrested him.

The police never new that Grant was in the car because Phil never grassed him up and the other guys let it go because Phil gave them there money in the end.

The police never got close enough to see it was Grant. Although it was a bit daft that sam stood there shouting Grant Grant and the police never really had proof it was Grant.

Phil's release from jail was probably the slopiest and certainly the laziest piece of script writing in the show's history.

Phil was totally framed by Den and there was simply no realistic way to get him off. Even without the security guard the arriving police caught him red handed - literally. Then he escapes from custody and gets caught, red-handed again!!!
