Existing law prohibits the disclosure of the home addresses of certain public employees and officials that appear in records of the Department of Motor Vehicles, except to a court, a law enforcement agency, an attorney in a civil or criminal action under certain circumstances, and certain other official entities. Existing law requires that following termination of office or employment, a confidential home address be withheld from public inspection for 3 years, unless the termination is the result of conviction of a criminal offense. Existing law provides that if a termination or separation from office or employment is the result of the filing of a criminal complaint, the confidential home address shall be withheld from public inspection during the time in which the terminated individual may file an appeal from termination, while an appeal from termination is ongoing, and until the appeal process is exhausted. If the termination or separation is upheld, existing law grants employing agencies with discretion to maintain the confidentiality of the terminated individual's home address. This bill would authorize an employing agency to request that the department remove the confidentiality protections described above following the termination of employment if no appeal to the termination is filed or if the termination or separation is upheld. If the terminated individual files an appeal from termination, this bill would require that the individual's home address be withheld from public inspection while the appeal from termination is ongoing and until the appeal process is exhausted. The bill would require the department to comply with these requests within 30 days of receipt. The bill would specify that these provisions shall not apply to terminations of employment resulting from the filing of a criminal complaint. This bill would make conforming changes.
