AI Summary

This bill establishes a presumption of pretrial detention for individuals who commit carjacking, theft of a motor vehicle, or burglary in furtherance of motor vehicle theft. The bill amends existing law to create a rebuttable presumption that no amount of monetary bail or non-monetary conditions would reasonably assure the defendant's appearance in court, protect public safety, or prevent obstruction of the criminal justice process. The bill also requires the Administrative Office of the Courts to report to the Legislature and Governor on the implementation and impact of this provision after its expiration one year after enactment.
