Bill Summary

For legislation to require the inclusion of certain civil rights offense information in the statewide domestic violence record keeping system. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill requires the commissioner of probation to add information about certain civil rights injunctions, which are court orders to stop specific 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 to access this information when considering issuing similar injunctions, and criminal justice agencies will also have access through their information systems. 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.
