Overview
This bill requests an additional $500,000 in state funding for the Judiciary’s Pretrial Services Program in Fiscal Year 2024. The program, established in 2017, helps oversee individuals awaiting trial. Increased funding is intended to bolster staffing levels and support the program’s ability to adequately monitor defendants on pretrial release, as recommended by a recent committee report and echoed by prosecutors. This supplemental appropriation will help address concerns about insufficient resources for pretrial services.
