Bill > AB2001

This bill expands the types of city and county officials who can access state summary criminal history information, which is a master record of a person's identification and criminal history maintained by the Department of Justice. Specifically, it allows city attorneys and county counsels to obtain this information when they are pursuing public nuisance actions or red light abatement actions, which are legal proceedings to address ongoing nuisances or illegal activities related to adult businesses. By broadening access to this sensitive information, the bill also expands the scope of an existing law that makes it a crime to knowingly furnish such information to unauthorized individuals, thus potentially creating new costs for local governments.
