The Prearrest Diversion Task Force Recommendations Temporary Amendment Act of 2026 proposes amendments to the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council for the District of Columbia Establishment Act of 2001. Specifically, it changes the deadlines for the Prearrest Diversion Task Force to issue initial recommendations regarding the prearrest diversion of certain misdemeanor offenses. The new deadlines are set to June 2025 for one recommendation and July 31, 2026, for another, replacing the previous timelines that were tied to the applicability date of the Secure DC Omnibus Amendment Act of 2024.

Additionally, the bill amends Title 20 of the District of Columbia Official Code to enhance the notice requirements for formal probate proceedings. It allows for notices from foreign personal representatives of decedents who owned property in the District to be published in a legal periodical or newspaper of general circulation, ensuring that interested parties, creditors, and unknown heirs are adequately informed. This amendment aims to improve the transparency and accessibility of probate processes in the District.
