DESCRIPTION: Money bail traps poor people in jail and strips their ability to exercise the constitutional guarantees promised to them by the Bill of Rights. Join the ACS Nashville Lawyer Chapter for a panel discussion on how money bail systems work, the disparities they create between the haves and have-nots, and the resulting harm to people, families, and communities.
