Last Action
2/06/2026 - House: Referred to Rules Committee
Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance
Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. Provides that if the court enters an order for the detention of the defendant pursuant to the denial of pretrial release provisions of the Code, the defendant shall be brought to trial on the offense in accordance with the speedy trial provisions of the Code (rather than brought to trial for the offense for which he is detained within 90 days after the date on which the order for detention was entered). Deletes the provision that if the defendant is not brought to trial within the 90-day period, he or she shall not be denied pretrial release.
