Required Notice of Intent to Contact a Victim

Summary

The bill would obligate any attorney, investigator, or other agent representing a criminal defendant to file a notice of intent to contact a victim at least 72 hours before reaching out for information about a pending case. The notice must use a standard form prepared by the state attorney in each judicial circuit. Contacts made during a court proceeding or deposition would be exempt.
