Information For Courts
Judicial officers are at the heart of their jurisdiction’s pretrial justice system.
| Judicial officers are tasked with making complicated and consequential decisions about pretrial detention, release, and conditions of release. Whether and how long someone remains in jail before trial impacts case outcomes, sentences, and long-term involvement with the criminal legal system. While constrained by the constitution, statutory law, and court rules, judicial officers wield considerable discretion and are pivotal to achieving pretrial justice in their respective jurisdictions. |
