FROM:
John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
SB628 by Wentworth (Relating to the time allowed for execution of a search warrant issued to obtain a specimen for DNA analysis.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend the Code of Criminal Procedure as it relates to the time allowed for execution of a search warrant issued to obtain a specimen for DNA analysis.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated. Local law enforcement entities and courts would see minimal savings from not needing to reissue a search warrant if a specific suspect or crime site cannot be identified or located.
