↓Restricts gun accessmodel confidence 90%
Expands the list of qualifying offenses that allow a defendant to be held on bail to include any misdemeanor or felony involving possession, display or discharge of a firearm, rifle, shotgun, machine-gun or disguised gun.
(v) any misdemeanor or felony offense as defined in the penal law involving the possession, display or discharge of a firearm, rifle, shotgun, machine-gun, or disguised gun.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds new qualifying offenses for bail eligibility (allowing pretrial detention) specifically for gun possession/display/discharge crimes; this is a firearms topic because it directly concerns offenses involving firearms and changes how they are treated in the criminal procedure law. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
