Rep. Tony McCombie

Amends the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. Provides that when determining which conditions reasonably ensure the appearance of the defendant as required or the safety of any other person or persons of the community, the court shall consider the ability of the court or pretrial services to effectively monitor the defendant's compliance with the conditions of pretrial release that are imposed. Provides that upon verified application by the defendant, the court before which the proceeding is pending may reconsider the current pretrial conditions imposed and determine whether the current conditions imposed are necessary to reasonably ensure the appearance of the defendant as required, the safety of any other person, and the compliance of the defendant with all the conditions of pretrial release. Provides that the defendant shall be required to present a verified application setting forth in detail any new facts not known or obtainable at the time of the previous hearing determining conditions of pre-trial release. Provides that if the court removes a pretrial release condition, the court shall state on the record of the proceedings the findings of facts and conclusions of law upon which such order is based.
