AB 3348

Bill Subjects

Abstract

Existing law provides specified requirements to ensure uniform recording, reporting, storage, analysis, and dissemination of criminal offender record information by criminal justice agencies in the state. Existing law authorizes a criminal justice agency to destroy the original records maintained pursuant to those provisions if the records have been reproduced onto another storage medium, as specified. Existing law requires that if a record has been reproduced onto optical disk, that the original record be retained for at least one year, as specified, before destruction. This bill would instead require that if a record has been reproduced onto optical disk, that the original record be retained for at least 16 months, as specified, before destruction.
