Modifies provisions relating to searches and seizures on private property by public entities
Second Read and Referred S Judiciary and Civil and Criminal Jurisprudence Committee
Summary
The bill replaces two existing statutes with new rules that let anyone whose property is taken without a proper warrant—especially on fenced or "no trespassing" land—to ask a court to suppress that evidence in a pending criminal case. It also requires state employees to get the landowner’s consent, a search warrant, or limited law‑enforcement permission before installing surveillance or game cameras on private property. The goal is to reinforce Fourth Amendment protections for property owners.
