Establishes provisions relating to plea agreements

HB 2791 amends a state statute to clarify that prosecutors may agree to dismiss charges or reduce penalties for one co-defendant in exchange for that person's testimony against another co-defendant. This directly affects criminal defendants, prosecutors, and courts handling cases with multiple defendants. The key provision explicitly permits such plea agreements where one defendant's cooperation (via testimony) is used to resolve another defendant's case. The bill establishes clear rules for this type of arrangement within the state's legal framework. (Introduced January 2026; no votes recorded yet.)
