Victim Privacy Amendments

Summary

The law lets victims of crimes request that only their initials appear on any criminal‑justice filing that the public can access, starting for offenses occurring on or after July 1 2026. Agencies that create those filings must keep the victim’s full information and must reveal it if a court orders it. It also protects victims’ and witnesses’ contact details from being disclosed without consent or a court finding a compelling need.
