29 counties still kept the emergency bail schedule; Humboldt is not one of them



29 California counties have still kept the COVID-19 emergency bail schedule to help curb the spread of COVID-19 in jails, according to data reported by superior courts to the California Judicial Council.



The California Judicial Council in April adopted a statewide COVID-19 emergency bail schedule that set bail at $0 for most people accused–but not yet tried–of misdemeanors and lower-level felonies. Last month, the council rescinded the emergency measure as California began a phased re-opening and courts restored services shuttered due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
