This program introduces the Pre-Trial Fairness Act and discusses strategies attorneys can use to navigate this new system of non-monetary bail that took effect in 2023. The course begins by introducing the statute and its presumption of pre-trial release. It then explores the state’s burden to provide any evidence and factors to deny such a release. Several scenarios are presented, along with relevant case law that has developed over the last few years.
