Bill > HB2221

This bill, by amending Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 4, Title 8, Title 16, Title 18, Title 40, and Title 67, Chapter 4, Part 6, aims to improve the victim notification system by requiring clerks of criminal courts to provide all necessary court data to the Tennessee Sheriffs' Association for the administration of the criminal proceedings notification system. This system is designed to inform individuals registered with it about upcoming court hearings related to their case, and this bill specifically increases the required advance notice for these hearings from 24 hours to 36 hours, ensuring victims and other registered parties have more time to prepare or attend.
