Appeal of Detention or Release Orders

D. Haw. CrimLR 57.7

Any party is entitled to an expedited review of, or appeal from, an order of a magistrate judge releasing or detaining a defendant pursuant to the Bail Reform Act of 1984, 18 U.S.C. § 3141 et seq. Such an appeal or review shall be de novo. An order releasing or detaining a defendant shall not be stayed pending appeal unless ordered by the presiding magistrate or district judge. In the case of an oral or written order detaining or releasing a defendant, the district judge on request of any party shall hear the appeal on the same day the magistrate judge ordered the detention or release except for good cause, in which case the appeal shall be heard as soon as practicable, usually within one business day.
