HR 5413 United States House · 119th Congress

No Bail Post-Jail Act

HR 5413, the "No Bail Post-Jail Act," changes federal bail rules by automatically denying pretrial release to certain defendants. It directly affects adults or juveniles charged as adults with a felony who have a prior felony conviction for a crime of violence that required at least 30 days in a state or federal prison (excluding pretrial detention). The bill requires a judge to deem such individuals a danger to the community and deny bail if all three conditions are met: a felony charge, prior violent felony conviction, and prior incarceration of 30+ days. This creates a mandatory denial of bail for these specific cases without individual risk assessment.
