CRIM PRO-REVOC PRETRIAL RELEAS

Summary

The bill requires that if a person who was released before trial on a felony or Class A misdemeanor and is wearing an electronic monitor is found to have likely committed another felony while out, their release will be cancelled and they will stay in jail until the new case is resolved. It also removes the rule that a judge must find continued detention necessary at every later court appearance for those whose release is revoked. The measure adds specific hearing procedures and places the burden of proof on the state.
