Relating to immunity from liability and suit for a public school or public school professional employee for and the prosecution of certain criminal conduct involving a student.

HB 5584 modifies Texas law regarding crimes committed by school staff against students. It grants the Texas Attorney General exclusive authority to prosecute specific offenses, such as assault or sexual misconduct under certain sections of the Penal Code or sex offender registration requirements, instead of local prosecutors. The bill also removes legal immunity for school districts in these cases, allowing victims to potentially sue the district for incidents involving such crimes. These provisions apply only to incidents occurring after the bill's effective date.
