Relating to a limitation on public access by livestream or videoconference to certain criminal proceedings involving evidence depicting an act of a sexual nature.

HB 1752 would require courts to obtain consent from the victim (or their guardian), the prosecutor, and the defendant before allowing public livestreams or videoconferences during criminal trials involving evidence of sexual acts. The bill mandates that courts must first notify all three parties about the potential public broadcast of such evidence. Without unanimous consent from all three, the evidence cannot be streamed publicly. This rule applies only to criminal cases starting on or after September 1, 2025, leaving pre-existing cases governed by prior law.
