Changes the timing of certain discovery requirements to sixty days prior to trial
This bill changes when prosecutors must share evidence with defendants in criminal cases, moving the deadline to sixty days before the trial starts. It applies to both defendants who are in jail and those who are not, requiring the prosecution to provide initial discovery materials by this new date instead of the previous timeline based on arraignment. The change aims to standardize the timing for evidence exchange regardless of whether the defendant is held in custody.
