Bill > SB14

This bill revises several provisions related to criminal procedure, focusing primarily on bail and protective orders in domestic violence cases. The bill expands existing law to make it harder for individuals arrested for domestic violence to be released on bail, particularly if they are already under a suspended sentence or serving residential confinement for a previous offense. It allows courts to revoke bail not just for felony offenses, but also for domestic violence batteries. Additionally, the bill enhances law enforcement's ability to arrest individuals who violate protective orders by allowing officers to take a person into custody if they have probable cause to believe an order has been issued against the person, the person has been notified of the order, and they are violating its terms. The bill also specifies different bail amounts for domestic violence cases based on the number of previous convictions and the severity of the current offense, with bail amounts ranging from $3,000 to $15,000. These changes aim to provide greater protection for victims of domestic violence and ensure that repeat offenders face stricter legal consequences.
