HB 1075 -- Arrest Without a Warrant

Sponsor:  Stevenson

This bill allows law enforcement agencies to hold a suspect
arrested without a warrant for up to 36 hours before charging the
person with a crime.  Current law allows suspects to be held for
24 hours when arrested for a class A felony, and for 20 hours
when arrested for lesser offenses.
