Bill overview
This bill changes Nevada’s rules about bail, specifically regarding defendants accused of felonies while out on bail. If a court determines there’s strong evidence a defendant committed a felony during their release period, the bill requires their bail to be revoked and they must be held without bail until their trial. It also removes certain procedures related to pretrial release for defendants charged with specific felonies while already on bail.
