An act relating to bail and conditions of pretrial release
This bill proposes changes to bail and pretrial release laws. It would remove limits on imposing bail, increase the maximum bail for certain misdemeanors, and require courts to hold or set high bail for defendants with multiple failures to appear, prior convictions, or new charges while on release. The bill also allows law enforcement recommendations on bail to be followed in some cases and removes the requirement for courts to consider a defendant's financial means when setting bail.
