H.B. No. 75 amends Article 15.17 of the Code of Criminal Procedure to require magistrates to make written findings in certain criminal proceedings. Specifically, the bill mandates that if a magistrate determines within 24 hours that there is no probable cause to believe that a person committed the offense for which they were arrested, the magistrate must enter written findings to support that determination in the record. This addition is marked as (h) in the bill. The law change applies only to offenses committed on or after the effective date of the Act, which is set for September 1, 2025. Offenses occurring before this date will continue to be governed by the previous law. This ensures that any legal proceedings related to offenses committed prior to the effective date are not affected by the new requirements.
