Bill > HB1843

This bill modifies the reporting requirements for criminal offenses by adding an exception for littering under section 577.070. Specifically, the bill amends the existing law regarding reportable offenses to exclude littering from the list of offenses that must be reported to the central repository of criminal history and identification records. The current law requires reporting of all felonies, class A misdemeanors, driving under the influence violations, and offenses that can be enhanced for subsequent violations. By adding the exception for littering, the bill prevents this specific offense from being tracked in the state's criminal reporting system. The bill maintains the existing provisions for reporting other types of criminal offenses and the maintenance of criminal history records, and ensures that the information collected remains subject to existing privacy and access regulations. This change appears to be a narrow adjustment to the state's criminal reporting requirements, specifically targeting how littering offenses are documented and tracked by law enforcement and judicial agencies.
