CRIM PRO-PRETRIAL REL-REVOKE

Summary

The bill lets Illinois courts cancel a defendant's pre‑trial release if they are charged with a new felony or Class A misdemeanor that occurred while out, if they abuse the release system, or if they are likely to skip court. It also lengthens the hearing window to 96 hours and raises the maximum jail sanction for release violations to 60 days. The changes affect defendants on pre‑trial release, prosecutors, and the courts.
