Opinion

majority opinion

GENOVESE, J., would grant for reasons assigned by Justice Hughes.

Hughes, J., would grant the writ.

The judge and the prosecutor, as an officer of the court, have a duty to ensure that criminal defendants, even guilty ones, do not sit in jail after prosecution deadlines have lapsed, without notice or remedy due to the lack of notice. The defendant in this case should be afforded a bond hearing.
