A bill for an act relating to privileged communications between spouses.

HF 915 maintains the legal privilege protecting private communications between spouses during marriage. It states that neither a current spouse nor a former spouse can be forced to testify about such communications in court, even after the marriage ends. The bill specifically allows spouses to refuse testimony if subpoenaed regarding these private conversations. However, it preserves existing exceptions where spouses may be examined in cases involving child abuse, neglect, or criminal acts against children, as outlined in current law. This bill directly affects individuals in marital or divorce proceedings where private communications could be relevant.
