Since 2019, NY has restricted cash bail for most non-violent and non-sex offenses.
Bail remains for serious crimes—homicide, robbery, assault, arson, sex offenses, and major gun charges.
Courts can impose non-bail conditions: counseling, maintaining employment/housing, surrendering passports, avoiding witnesses, etc.
Today, roughly 150 crimes remain bail-eligible, and judges have discretion in repeat or protection order violations.
