AN ACT RELATING TO CRIMINAL PROCEDURE -- DOMESTIC VIOLENCE PREVENTION ACT

Summary

The bill forces every police officer who responds to a domestic‑violence incident to complete a standardized electronic report, even if no arrest is made. The report must contain extensive data about the parties, the incident, any weapons, prior orders and other relevant details, and be sent to the state courts’ domestic‑violence training and monitoring unit each month or as soon as practicable. The goal is to improve the state’s ability to track and address domestic‑violence cases.
