A BILL for an Act to create and enact a new section to chapter 14-07 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to the disclosure of domestic violence protection orders to law enforcement.

SB 2289 requires law enforcement officers in North Dakota to be notified when a domestic violence protection order is issued. This bill directly affects victims of domestic violence and the police officers responding to related incidents. The key provision mandates that courts must disclose these protection orders to law enforcement agencies, ensuring officers have immediate access to critical safety information during responses. This change aims to improve officer awareness and victim safety without altering the legal standards for obtaining protection orders.
