AI Summary
This bill proposes to create a new law, known as an "extreme risk protection order," which would allow a judge or circuit court commissioner to issue a temporary restraining order or injunction prohibiting a person from possessing firearms if there are reasonable grounds to believe the person is substantially likely to injure themselves or another person if they possess a firearm. The bill also makes several related changes to existing laws, such as expanding the firearms restrictions record search and allowing for the combined filing of petitions under various domestic abuse, child abuse, and harassment laws. Overall, the bill aims to establish a legal process for temporarily restricting firearm access in situations where there is a substantial risk of harm.
