Revises provisions relating to criminal procedure. (BDR 14-341)
SB 361 requires law enforcement to obtain a court-issued "tracking warrant" before accessing most location information from electronic devices (like smartphones) or unique identifiers (like account IDs), with limited exceptions for emergencies, stolen devices, or explicit consent. It prohibits using location data collected without a warrant as evidence in court and mandates that law enforcement provide a copy of the warrant and collected data to defendants at least 10 days before trial. The bill also requires law enforcement to apply for a warrant within 48 hours if they initially access location data without one during emergencies. This directly affects law enforcement agencies, electronic device users, and courts by establishing clear procedures for digital location data collection and evidence handling.
