This bill amends federal criminal procedure law to expand support for indigent defendants and increase magistrate judges' authority. It broadens eligibility for transportation and subsistence assistance to defendants who cannot afford to travel to court proceedings, including return travel and meals during proceedings. It also expands magistrate judges' jurisdiction to rule on post-judgment motions, including habeas corpus petitions and sentence modification requests, without requiring district court judge approval.
