Summary
Existing law regarding misdemeanor release procedures provides that an officer may book an arrested person prior to release or indicate on the citation that the arrested person shall appear at the arresting agency to be booked or indicate on the citation that the arrested person shall appear at the arresting agency to be fingerprinted prior to the arrested person's court date. This bill would specify that an officer may book the arrested person at the scene or at the arresting agency prior to release. This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 853.6 of the Penal Code proposed by AB 688 contingent on the prior enactment of that bill.
