If this bill were to become law, it would amend current statutes regarding constable training in Arizona. Specifically, it would add a new provision allowing elected or appointed constables to request training from the Constable Ethics Standards and Training Board (CESTB). Upon approval, the training would be funded by the CESTB and delivered by a constable who has completed the mandatory basic training course. This constable would be permitted to provide training in any county within the state.

Additionally, the bill would remove the phrase "shall" from the existing statute that states the provisions of law relating to sheriffs govern the powers, duties, and liabilities of constables. This change aims to clarify the relationship between the laws governing sheriffs and those governing constables, while also ensuring that constables have access to necessary training resources.
