Maddy summaryThis Assembly Concurrent Resolution (ACR 1) is a procedural measure that sets the adjournment date for California's 2025-26 First Extraordinary Legislative Session. It directs that the session automatically adjourns "sine die" (permanently) at midnight on the date both the Assembly and Senate pass the resolution. The bill does not create new policy or affect the public; it solely establishes a procedural deadline for the legislature's own session. The title "Relative to K-Ginseng Day" appears unrelated to the resolution's actual content and likely reflects a placeholder or error in the bill's naming. The resolution was adopted by the Senate on February 3, 2025, and filed with the Secretary of State on February 6, 2025.

Existing law, on and after July 1, 2021, authorizes a person to file a petition in the superior court in the county in which they are registered for termination from the sex offender registry on or after their next birthday following the expiration of the mandated minimum registration period. If the district attorney requests a hearing regarding the above-described petition, under existing law, the district attorney is entitled to present evidence regarding whether community safety would be significantly enhanced by requiring continued registration.
