Bill > HB1159

This bill amends the law on obstructing government administration to include cyberstalking, cyberbullying, and doxxing of public servants as unlawful conduct that can hinder or interfere with a public servant performing their official duties. The bill defines these terms, with cyberbullying referring to the repeated and intentional use of electronic devices to harass or threaten a public servant, cyberstalking involving a course of conduct that would cause a reasonable person to fear for their safety, and doxxing as the reckless or purposeful revealing of a public servant's private or personally identifiable information to threaten, intimidate, or harass them. The bill also allows the court to impose additional remedies, such as injunctive relief and restitution, for offenses involving simulated legal process.
