A 2307 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Makes FY2024 supplemental appropriation of $500,000 to Judiciary to support expansion of Pretrial Services Program.

This bill adds $500,000 in supplemental funding to New Jersey's Judiciary for the Statewide Pretrial Services Program during fiscal year 2024. It directly affects defendants on pretrial release by enabling the program to increase staffing and improve oversight, including resources for electronic monitoring equipment. The funding addresses recommendations from a 2023 criminal justice report and testimony from prosecutors and court officials about current resource gaps. This is a targeted budget adjustment to support the existing program, which was established under New Jersey's 2017 Criminal Justice Reform Act.
