Establishes penalty for withholding identification to hinder apprehension or prosecution.

This bill makes it a crime to refuse to provide valid identification to police upon arrest, specifically when done to hinder apprehension or prosecution. It directly affects individuals arrested for offenses who withhold their true identity or valid ID when requested. The key provision adds this refusal as a new violation under New Jersey's hindering apprehension law, with penalties matching those for giving false information - ranging from a fourth-degree crime (for minor offenses) to a mandatory one-year prison term for serious cases like hit-and-runs causing death. Family members (spouse, parent, child) face reduced penalties for similar acts. The bill is pending in the Senate Law and Public Safety Committee.
