MODERATE

This bill was amended to refine how protective orders are shared with military security forces. The changes clarify that notification is required specifically when the respondent is alleged to be a servicemember, rather than for all military-affiliated individuals. The text also corrects spelling errors (e.g., 'Corp' to 'Corps') and updates the effective date to July 1, 3000.

Scope change

The scope of notification to military security forces is now limited to cases where the respondent is alleged to be a servicemember, narrowing the applicability compared to the original draft.

ELIGIBILITY

Changed the requirement for military notification to apply only when the respondent is alleged to be a servicemember, removing the broader 'military-affiliated' language.

DEFINITION

Corrected spelling of 'Marine Corps' from 'Marine Corp' and updated 'United States Army Garrison Hawaii' to replace 'U.S. Army Garrison Hawaii'.

TIMELINE

Updated the effective date of the Act from 'upon approval' to July 1, 3000.

TECHNICAL

Removed redundant lines regarding document metadata and formatting instructions.
