AI Summary

Specifically, it requires a judge's approval before releasing certain defendants on their own recognizance, including those charged with Class A or B felonies, aggravated assault, aggravated assault against a first responder, or felony domestic assault. Additionally, the bill states that if a defendant is charged with a new bailable offense while already released on bail, they can only be released under specific sections of the law, and the bail amount for the new offense must be at least twice the customary amount.
