Requires victim notification concerning termination of sex offender's obligation to register and requires court to enter or continue restraining order for victim of sex offense under certain circumstances.
This bill requires courts to notify victims when sex offenders apply to be removed from the registration list, allowing victims to speak at hearings and be informed if applications are granted. It mandates that courts issue restraining orders prohibiting contact between sex offenders and victims when victims consent, both for pre-trial releases and sentencing. The bill ensures restraining orders remain in effect until modified with the victim's consent, applying to all existing and new orders. These provisions strengthen victim notification and protection rights in sex offense cases.
