A bill for an act relating to Brady-Giglio list appeals and law enforcement officers’ rights, and providing effective date and applicability provisions.

This bill grants law enforcement officers the right to appeal or intervene in decisions by prosecuting agencies to place them on a Brady-Giglio list, which restricts their ability to testify in court due to potential credibility issues. It establishes that district courts will review these cases, often in closed sessions, and has the authority to remove an officer from the list if the decision is unjustified. If an officer wins their appeal, the law requires the employing state, municipality, or county to pay for their legal fees and other court costs. The changes apply immediately and also cover cases where officers were placed on the list on or after July 1, 2021.
