HB 93 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Domestic abuse court program; establish.

HB 93 establishes a framework for creating specialized domestic abuse courts in Mississippi. It allows county and chancery courts to set up these courts (with municipal courts able to participate), requiring standardized operations focused on victim safety and offender accountability through coordinated services. The bill creates a dedicated Domestic Abuse Court Fund to finance these programs, funded by court assessments and state appropriations, and mandates uniform operational standards for case management and service referrals. The bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and did not become law.
