Summary

The bill protects people who seek emergency help for someone overdosing from criminal charges and from losing parole, probation, or extended supervision. It also protects the overdose victim by allowing them to retain supervision if they finish a treatment program or agree to at least 15 days in county jail, and requires prosecutors to offer a deferred prosecution tied to treatment. The goal is to remove legal barriers to getting help during an overdose.
