A 3008 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires foreign corporations providing electronic communication services or remote computing services to comply with New Jersey subpoenas, court orders and search warrants.

This bill requires foreign companies providing online services (like social media or cloud storage) to comply with New Jersey court orders, search warrants, or subpoenas seeking customer data. It mandates they produce records within five business days (or faster if an "adverse result" like evidence destruction is imminent), including data stored outside New Jersey. Domestic New Jersey companies must also comply with similar requests from other states or the federal government. Violations can result in civil penalties of $10,000-$50,000 per violation, and companies providing data are protected from civil liability.
