AI Summary
This bill creates "extreme risk protection temporary restraining orders and injunctions" that allow a judge to prohibit a person from possessing firearms if there is clear and convincing evidence that the person is substantially likely to injure themselves or others. The bill outlines the process for obtaining these temporary restraining orders and injunctions, including requirements for the petition, hearings, and orders for the surrender of firearms. The bill also makes various changes to existing laws to incorporate these new extreme risk protection orders, such as amending firearms background check and record search requirements. Overall, the bill aims to establish a legal mechanism to temporarily restrict firearm possession by individuals who pose a significant risk of harm.
