Domestic Violence Amendments

Summary

The bill requires officers who receive complaints from both parties in a domestic violence incident to evaluate each claim separately and determine who the predominant aggressor was. If one person is identified as the main physical aggressor, the other party does not have to be arrested. It also obligates law‑enforcement agencies to give victims free access to incident reports, forward those reports to prosecutors within five days, and complete investigations and file charges within set timeframes.
