Committee — INEXPEDIENT TO LEGISLATE

Rep. Marjorie Smith

This bill would create mandatory reporting for certain individuals of any civil rights violations committed by members of the judicial branch, and establishes a penalty for failures to comply. The responsibility to report would apply to state or federal employees, could affect prosecution, incarceration, probation and parole costs, as well as county and local governments. Current law and rules already provide for reporting of violations and this bill would provide no additional protections and could hold people responsible over whom the state has no authority. Vote 18-0.
