Abstract
In the wake of New York state passing comprehensive bail reform in 2019, legislators encountered fervent backlash. That backlash prompted several amendments, but many questions concerning the practical effects of the reforms remain. In this Essay, we explore the history of bail in New York, the amendments, and provide answers to some of the biggest questions and concerns surrounding bail reform in New York and elsewhere.
