New Jersey A3683 establishes a presumption of pretrial detention for certain vehicular offenses.

New Jersey A3683 amends the state's criminal code to establish a presumption of pretrial detention for defendants charged with reckless vehicular homicide or strict liability vehicular homicide. This presumption applies when a prosecutor files a motion for pretrial detention, and it may be rebutted by proof provided by the defendant or the prosecutor. If the presumption cannot be rebutted, the court may order the defendant's pretrial detention.
