The New Jersey State Bar Association supports S-3708 (Greenstein)/A-5285 (Greenwald), which requires copies of certain law enforcement records to be provided to victims of domestic violence upon request.
The Association supports this proposed legislation because it provides that a domestic violence victim, or their legal representative, has the right to request certain law enforcement records to be provided at no charge within 10 calendar days of the request. This is an important measure that will allow victims to easily access important information regarding their domestic violence complaint.
For the reasons set forth above, the New Jersey State Bar Association supports S-3708/A-5285 and urges you to vote yes to this proposed legislation.
