Bill > SB1211

This bill amends Arizona law to expand the types of felony offenses for which a court must issue a lifetime injunction prohibiting the defendant from contacting the victim, upon the request of the victim or prosecutor at the time of sentencing. Specifically, it adds a felony offense related to aggravated harassment involving domestic violence, as defined in Arizona law, to the list of qualifying offenses. An injunction issued under this law is immediately effective, served at sentencing, and registered with the national crime information center, remaining valid for the defendant's lifetime unless the victim dies, the conviction is overturned or expunged, or the victim requests its early expiration. This provision aims to provide ongoing protection for victims of certain serious crimes, including those involving domestic violence.
