Bill Summary

Establishes presumption of pretrial detention for persons who commit carjacking, theft of motor vehicle, or burglary.

AI Summary

This bill establishes a rebuttable presumption of pretrial detention for individuals charged with carjacking, theft of a motor vehicle, or burglary in furtherance of motor vehicle theft. The presumption can be rebutted by the defendant, and the court must still find clear and convincing evidence that no conditions of release would reasonably assure the defendant's appearance, protect public safety, and prevent obstruction of the criminal justice process. The bill also requires the Administrative Office of the Courts to report on the impact of this provision after it expires one year after enactment.
