Study of the criminal justice data warehouse

This joint resolution (LC 4485) requests a study of Montana's criminal justice data warehouse, established by 2023 legislation (SB 11). It directs the Criminal Justice Oversight Council to examine the warehouse's implementation progress, funding, stakeholder input, and future goals, with a report due to the 70th Legislature by September 2026. The study will involve gathering perspectives from courts, law enforcement, tribal governments, corrections agencies, and other relevant stakeholders. This procedural resolution does not change policy but seeks to inform future legislative decisions about the data warehouse.
