Revises provisions relating to criminal procedure. (BDR 14-196)

SB 197 establishes new procedures for prosecutors regarding the "Brady-Giglio list," which tracks law enforcement officers whose credibility might affect criminal cases. It requires prosecutors to provide written notice to officers before adding them to the list, including their right to submit evidence and input about the placement. The bill also mandates that officers placed on the list receive notice of their right to request reconsideration, and prosecutors must remove them if the placement isn't warranted. This directly affects law enforcement officers who may testify as witnesses in criminal cases. The policy aims to balance transparency with due process for both defendants and law enforcement.
