FISCAL NOTE ANALYSIS
STATE OF ALASKA BILL NO. HB 12
2019 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
The committee substitute for House Bill 12 revises the laws regarding domestic violence protective orders, stalking
protective orders, and sexual assault protective orders. Sections 1 and 3 provide that a petition may not be denied solely
because the offense was the basis for a previous protective order, or because a previous court considered the incident and
declined to issue a protective order, if there was a change in circumstances. Sections 2 and 4 provide that a protective
order may, under certain conditions, be extended for an additional time period.
The Alaska Court System receives and considers petitions for protective orders daily. Under House Bill 12, the court must
schedule a hearing and provide notice to the respondent when a petitioner seeks to extend an order; it also allows a
person to seek a protective order again after a court previously declined to order relief, if circumstances have changed.
Though this bill is likely to result in additional hearings for protective orders, the court anticipates that the number of
added hearings will not be large and that it can absorb the additional work without fiscal impact.
The court system therefore submits this zero fiscal note.
