CRIMINAL/VICTIMS: Provides relative to victim notification (EN SEE FISC NOTE LF EX)

HB 734 amends existing laws regarding victim notification in criminal cases to clarify the roles and responsibilities of victim service coordinators. The bill specifically updates terminology to replace references to "prosecuting agencies" with "victim service coordinators" and designates the Department of Public Safety and Corrections as a key entity for these services. By making these text changes, the legislation ensures that victims are notified through established coordination programs rather than solely through the offices that handle the prosecution.
