An Act concerning the disclosure of the home address and home contact information of certain public safety officials

SD 285 prohibits individuals, businesses, and associations from publishing or making available on the internet the home address or unpublished home telephone number of certain public safety officials. It directly affects active, retired, or former judicial officers, law enforcement officers, prosecutors, and their immediate family members living in the same household. The law requires entities to remove such information within 10 business days of a valid request from an authorized person (like a court clerk or family member), with violations subject to civil penalties starting at $1,000 per violation. News media is exempt from liability for previously published content, and the law takes effect one year after enactment.
