AI Summary

This bill requires the commissioner of probation to add information about civil rights injunctions, which are court orders to stop certain actions, to the statewide domestic violence recordkeeping system. These injunctions can be temporary, preliminary, or permanent and are issued under specific laws related to civil rights and domestic violence. This updated system will allow judges considering issuing such injunctions and criminal justice agencies to access this important information. The bill also amends existing laws to ensure that clerks of court and the Attorney General transmit copies of these injunctions to the commissioner of probation for inclusion in the system.
