SB 1375 protects individuals attending court proceedings from civil arrest while traveling to, at, or leaving court. It covers parties, witnesses, potential witnesses, and specific court companions (like family members, advocates, or translators) at court locations and within 1,000 feet, with violations carrying $10,000 in damages. The bill also requires Arizona hospitals to adopt policies by January 2027 for handling law enforcement interactions, including verifying officer identity, designating waiting areas, and providing patients with privacy notices that allow redaction of immigration status or birthplace information. These provisions apply to all court proceedings and hospital facilities statewide, directly affecting court participants, hospitals, and law enforcement.
