Florida's new statewide bond schedule, introduced under House Bill 1627, is a significant reform aimed at standardizing bail practices across judicial circuits. Effective January 1, 2024, the law seeks to establish consistency and equity in pretrial release decisions.
Passed in 2023, the law required the Florida Supreme Court to create statewide uniform bond recommendations. Under the law, judges can increase the amount of bail beyond what the Supreme Court recommends. But to reduce it, a jurisdiction would have to petition for the court's approval.
Under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.134, state prosecutors generally have up to 30 days to file charges against someone following their arrest. If the defendant remains uncharged, the court must release them on their own recognizance by the 33rd day following their initial arrest.
In 2024, Florida broadened the conditions under which a criminal defendant may be denied pretrial release. A new statute allows courts to withhold bond for a defendant accused of a crime that poses a heightened risk to public safety if there is a substantial probability that the defendant committed the crime.
If you or a loved one are remanded without bond, it means there is no chance for release before a trial date. Instead, you will be required to remain in jail until your hearing.
In addition to capital, life, and first-degree felonies, certain other felonies and dangerous crimes could disqualify someone from being granted bail. These include violent crimes in Florida such as: Arson. Aggravated armed burglary.
