An Act amending Title 42 (Judiciary and Judicial Procedure) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in bonds and recognizances, further providing for bail to be governed by general rules.

HB 920 amends Pennsylvania's bail procedures under Title 42, requiring courts to apply returned cash bail toward restitution, fines, fees, and costs in criminal or delinquency cases unless the defendant or depositor demonstrates undue hardship. It directly affects individuals who post cash bail (defendants or third parties) by changing how unclaimed bail funds are handled after a case concludes. Key provisions include mandating written notice to depositors about this rule before accepting cash bail and specifying that funds must cover court-ordered payments unless hardship is proven. The bill takes effect 180 days after enactment.
