Chaptered by Secretary of State - Chapter 595, Statutes of 2026.
Summary
The law lets judges issue protective orders not only for direct victims of certain violent crimes but also for the victims' family members and others shown to be harmed. It requires defendants under such orders to surrender firearms, may impose electronic monitoring, and sets rules for how orders are coordinated across courts. The bill also clarifies that the state will not reimburse local agencies for costs tied to these new requirements.
