The dismissal of Russell v. Harris County in August 2023 marked the effective end of federal intervention in Harris County’s felony bond practices. While the ODonnell consent decree governs misdemeanor courts, the felony system now operates under the unrestricted mechanics of Texas Senate Bill 6 (SB 6). This 2021 legislation, fully entrenched by 2024, mandated criminal history reviews and stripped charitable bail organizations of their ability to function effectively. The result is a mechanical detention system where freedom correlates directly with liquid assets. The following analysis examines the specific operational outcomes of this legal environment between 2023 and 2026.
