Bill Summary

An Act To Amend Section 97-29-107, Mississippi Code Of 1972, To Delete The Exemption For Any Public Or Private School Library In This State From The Crime Of Distributing Obscene Materials; And For Related Purposes.

AI Summary

This bill removes an exemption that previously protected public and private school libraries in Mississippi from being prosecuted for distributing obscene materials, meaning these libraries will now be subject to the same laws regarding the distribution of obscene content as other entities. The existing law, Mississippi Code of 1972, Section 97-29-107, outlines exemptions to laws concerning obscene materials, and this amendment specifically targets and deletes the clause that excluded public and private school libraries from these regulations.
