Bail; require specific finding before granting bail for a crime of violence, remove justice court authority to take felony bond.

SB 2106 would require Mississippi courts to make a specific finding before granting bail to defendants charged with violent crimes (as defined in Section 97-3-2), ensuring bail won't endanger others or compromise public safety. It also removes justice court judges' authority to set bonds for felony offenses, transferring that power to higher courts. The bill directly affects defendants charged with violent crimes and justice court judges handling felony cases. However, the bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and did not become law.
