AI Summary
This bill, known as "Stavri's Law", amends the Massachusetts General Laws to require the court to record certain information in the Department of Criminal Justice Information Services computer whenever a person in court custody makes a suicidal threat or engages in suicidal behavior. The information recorded includes the person's name, address, age, the reason for their detention, and the nature and date of the suicidal threat or behavior. Additionally, the court is required to make a similar record when a person is the subject of a civil commitment petition based on suicidal threats or behavior, regardless of whether the petition is granted.
