Creates a provision requiring court review of domestic violence bail applications

This bill, known as the Isol Cotto Act, requires that individuals arrested for domestic violence or violating protection orders must appear before a judge before being released on bail. Under the new rules, a judge must review the circumstances of the arrest, any history of violent offenses, and the risk the accused poses to the victim within twelve hours of the arrest. The law limits how long a person can be held without this judicial review to a maximum of twelve hours. This change directly affects law enforcement and court procedures regarding the release of defendants accused of family-related offenses.
