Bill > SB2289

This bill creates a new requirement in North Dakota law mandating that court records related to domestic violence protection orders must be disclosed to law enforcement upon request. Specifically, the bill requires that any court record connected to a domestic violence protection order (as defined in section 14-07.1-02 of the North Dakota Century Code) be provided to law enforcement officers when they request it. The purpose of this disclosure is to help law enforcement officers effectively carry out their professional duties. This means that if a sheriff or other law enforcement official needs to access records about a domestic violence protection order, the court must provide those records, which could help officers better respond to and manage situations involving domestic violence protection orders.
