HUMAN REMAINS: Enacts the Gracey Claire Rushing Act to provide for documentation, notification, and communication in the handling and disposition of human remains and internal organs (EN NO IMPACT See Note)

Summary

The Gracey Claire Rushing Act amends Louisiana law to set specific content for coroner autopsy reports and to define who may receive copies. It limits public availability of these reports while allowing law‑enforcement, next‑of‑kin, and the decedent’s physician to obtain them at no charge. The goal is to improve documentation and communication about the handling of human remains and organs.
