AI Summary

This bill amends the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963, which outlines the legal processes for criminal cases in Illinois, by adding a new section that mandates the denial of pretrial release for individuals who have a prior felony conviction and are currently charged with a firearm offense. Pretrial release refers to the ability of a defendant to be free from jail while awaiting their trial, often secured by a bond. The bill specifies that this denial of release is required regardless of any other existing rules or provisions within the Code that might otherwise allow for pretrial release.
