RELATING TO TRESPASSING.

HB 709 establishes a limited alternative process for homeowners to remove unauthorized people from residential properties without first going to court. It creates a faster, streamlined method for immediate removal of trespassers from homes and apartments, bypassing the standard legal timeline. This directly affects homeowners and renters facing ongoing unauthorized presence on their residential property. The bill remains pending in committee and has not yet become law.
