Bill > SB2333

This bill mandates the creation of a misdemeanor warrant management system by the Mississippi Justice Information Center, which is a state agency responsible for managing criminal justice information. This system will allow criminal justice agencies, such as police departments and courts, to electronically track misdemeanor warrants from the moment they are issued, through their service, and until they are recalled, ensuring better coordination between different jurisdictions. The Department of Public Safety will be responsible for developing the necessary rules and regulations for this system, and all criminal justice agencies, along with the Administrative Office of Courts (which manages court operations), must cooperate in its establishment. The bill also makes conforming amendments to existing laws to reflect these changes, including defining the "misdemeanor warrant management system" and outlining its purpose within the broader justice information framework, and specifies that this system must be operational by January 1, 2028.
