Release Decision-Making is a judicial determination process within pretrial justice systems that involves the assessment of legal and factual criteria to decide whether a defendant should be released or detained, distinguished by its reliance on risk assessment, legal equity, and public safety considerations in the absence of post-conviction sentencing.
