Indiana has two statewide ballot measures certified to be on the ballot on Nov. 3.
The state legislature has referred a constitutional amendment to the ballot that would require city and town court judges to reside in the county where the court is located or in a county closest to the court which borders the county where the court is located.
The legislature has also referred a constitutional amendment to the ballot to provide offenses other than murder or treason are bailable unless the accused poses a substantial risk to any other person or the community if the presumption is strong, and the state proves that no condition of release will protect the community.

interesting, didn’t know that… Not sure about either… As a long time practicing attorney, perhaps in a future column you will offer your opinions and recommendations… Maybe invite another to offer opposing views?
