Release After Conviction Pending Appeal; Conditions

(a)A person who has been convicted of an offense and is either awaiting sentence or has filed an appeal, shall be released pursuant to §§ 40.15 or 40.20 pending the imposition of sentence or the final determination of the appeal, by the court having jurisdiction of the case, unless the court has reason to believe that no one or more conditions of release will reasonably assure that the person will not flee or pose a danger to any other person or the community. If such a risk of flight or danger is believed to exist, or if it appears that an appeal is frivolous or taken for delay, the person may be ordered detained.

(b)The provisions of § 40.80 shall not apply to persons described in this Section. However, other rights to judicial review of conditions of release or orders of detention shall not be affected.
