domestic violence; release conditions

Summary

The bill lets victims or a third party file protection orders without a filing fee, lets courts issue those orders without a hearing if there is reasonable cause, and adds firearm bans and mandatory treatment for defendants. It also requires judges to consider a long list of factors – including the victim’s view and a risk assessment – before setting bail, and mandates electronic monitoring and no‑contact conditions for domestic‑violence felons. Finally, it bars joint legal decision‑making or unsupervised parenting time when significant domestic violence is found, and sets detailed standards for when a violent parent may still receive parenting time.
