Plain-English Summary

The proposal would give federal judges and law enforcement officials new tools to assess whether criminal defendants are likely to flee before trial, and would establish standards for deciding when to detain someone or set bail conditions. It aims to reduce the number of defendants who fail to appear in court by improving how courts evaluate flight risk. This would affect criminal defendants, judges, prosecutors, and the bail system used across federal courts.
