SB 5149-S - DIGEST |
(DIGEST OF PROPOSED 1ST SUBSTITUTE) |
Modifies the sentencing reform act of 1981 to include electronic monitoring with victim notification technology that is capable of notifying a victim or protected party, either directly or through a monitoring agency, if the monitored individual is at or near a location from which he or she is required to stay away. |
Requires the administrative office of the courts to: (1) Develop a list of vendors or enter into a contract with a vendor that provides the technology; |
(2) Create an informational handout on the opportunity to request the technology to be provided to individuals seeking a protection order; and |
(3) Provide funding to counties to cover the cost of the technology when a respondent is unable to pay for the costs. |
