Bill > S3708

This bill requires copies of certain law enforcement records, such as photographs, body camera footage, and 911 transcripts, to be provided to victims of domestic violence upon request within 10 calendar days, or within 24 hours if the records become available later. The bill also allows victims to enforce their right to access these records through the Family Division of the Superior Court, which can issue protective orders to limit the use or disclosure of the records. Additionally, the bill amends the Prevention of Domestic Violence Act to allow the court to consider the absence of law enforcement records when determining final restraints, and it permits the release of expunged or sealed records related to previous domestic violence incidents between the parties.
