Vermont H0409 revises bail revocation procedures to align with State v. Sauve and related cases.

Vermont H0409 amends the state's bail revocation statute to ensure it aligns with State v. Sauve and subsequent cases. The bill specifies the conditions under which bail can be revoked, including repeated failures to appear in court, violations of release conditions, and flight from prosecution. It mandates that law enforcement officers can arrest individuals without a warrant after a bail revocation order is issued. The bill also allows prosecutors or defendants to request a review of a bail revocation order, which the court can schedule at its discretion.
