AI Summary
This bill allows court officers to carry firearms within the premises of the court or the immediate vicinity thereof, provided they have a license to carry a firearm. It amends the existing law by explicitly granting court officers the authority to carry weapons as determined necessary by the chief justices of the trial court, supreme judicial court, or appeals court. The bill also expands the areas where court officers can carry firearms from the "areas of the court to which they have been assigned" to "the premises of the court or in the immediate vicinity thereof."
