S 4409 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires expedited compliance with certain search warrants in domestic violence and stalking investigations.

This bill amends New Jersey's existing laws regarding search warrants to require law enforcement to act more quickly when investigating domestic violence and stalking cases. It specifically updates legal definitions for terms like "wire communication," "electronic communication," and "intercept" to ensure they cover modern technology such as cordless phones and electronic storage. By clarifying these definitions, the legislation aims to streamline the process for investigators to obtain and execute warrants related to digital and electronic evidence in these specific types of cases.
