Bill Summary
An act to amend Section 1016.3 of the Penal Code, relating to immigration.
AI Summary
This bill makes a minor, technical change to a California law that requires defense attorneys to advise defendants about the potential immigration consequences of a proposed plea deal, and for prosecutors to consider avoiding negative immigration outcomes during plea negotiations. Specifically, the bill changes the wording from "his or her" to "their" when referring to a defendant's immigration status, ensuring the law is gender-neutral and does not require a defendant to disclose their immigration status to the court.
