Amends the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. In the provision that states if a person remains in pretrial detention 48 hours after having been ordered released with pretrial conditions, the court shall hold a hearing to determine the reason for continued detention, provides that the 48-hour time limit does not apply if the person has been found to be in need of mental health treatment or services upon release. Provides that the court shall hold a hearing every 7 to 10 days of the person's pretrial detention to be reevaluated every 7 to 10 days until adequate mental health treatment or services may be obtained after the defendant's release from pretrial detention.
