description: "Existing law provides that in any case in which a person is arrested for a misdemeanor violation of a protective court order involving domestic violence, as defined, or arrested for a misdemeanor pursuant to a policy relating to domestic violence, the person shall be taken before a magistrate rather than being released, unless the arresting officer determines that there is not a reasonable likelihood that the offense will continue or resume or that the safety of persons or property would be imminently endangered by release of the person arrested. Existing law requires that before any person who has been arrested for commission of certain crimes, including specified domestic violence offenses, stalking, and criminal threats, is released on bail in an amount other than that specified in the schedule of bail or is released on his or her own recognizance, a hearing be held at which the court shall consider certain enumerated factors including the potential danger the detained person poses to other persons."
