AB 1147

Bill Subjects

Abstract

Existing law requires each state and local agency that employs peace officers to annually report to the Attorney General data on all stops conducted by the agency's peace officers, and requires that data to include specified information, including the time, date, and location of the stop, and the reason for the stop. Existing law defines a "stop" for that purpose as any detention by a peace officer of a person, or any peace officer interaction with a person in which the peace officer conducts a search, including a consensual search, of the person's body or property in the person's possession or control. For purposes of those reporting requirements, this bill would clarify that a "stop" does not include circumstances upon which a peace officer is dispatched to a call for service or a medical emergency.
