This morning, the Illinois Supreme Court found that the Pre-Trial Fairness Act can take effect and it will lift it's stay on September 18. In 60 days, Illinois will have no cash bond. The Act is unclear in some areas and contradictory in others, so local courts will be making this up as they go. It means most criminal defendants will be released before trial. Those who are held will be held without possibility of bond. I'll try to post about it as we figure it out. #LawFedi #CrimLaw #BailReform
