No. Preliminary hearings are only conducted on demand of an accused, so the outcome of any given examining trial only affects the parties in that particular examining trial.

Most of the accused, seeing that the judge finds probable cause when none exists, and given the option of "examining trial or have your bail conditions relaxed," opt for relaxation of bail conditions.
