Summary
The bill amends section 3142 of title 18, United States Code, which governs pretrial release and detention in federal criminal cases. It removes the provision that created a statutory presumption of detention for defendants charged with certain serious drug offenses, which would give federal courts greater discretion in deciding whether pretrial detention is appropriate for nonviolent drug defendants. The bill also makes conforming changes to cross-references to other sections of the U.S. Code and redesignates the remaining subparagraphs accordingly.
