Show Notes
COVID-19 delayed trials and motivated judges to order home monitoring. The trade off?

We discuss the obstacles to getting started.
Guests:
Chief Judge John P. Morrissey of the District Court of Maryland
Todd Oppenheim, supervising attorney in the Baltimore City Public Defenders’ Office
Iman Freeman, executive director of the Baltimore Legal Action Team
Delegate Luke Clippinger
Delegate Stephanie Smith
Correction: HB316 passed without Governor Hogan's signature. In the introduction, we incorrectly described the bill as "signed into law."
