  This CLE session offers a detailed review of House Bill 2444, examining the significant legislative shifts and procedural mandates introduced by this act. The presentation breaks down the bill’s impact on jail credit awards within consecutive sentence structures and analyzes the specialized sentencing enhancements now required for felonies committed while on probation, parole, or post-release supervision. Beyond sentencing, the course explores HB 2444’s requirements for minimum secured bonds for specific repeat offenders and clarifies the precise circumstances under which the law necessitates formal hearings and written judicial findings. Participants will gain a practical understanding of these statutory changes, concluding with an analysis of the official fiscal note to understand the broader administrative and economic implications of the legislation.
