INTRODUCTION

Senate Bill 83 (H-5), which is not included in this summary, would enact the Extreme Risk protection Order Act to allow specified individuals to file an action requesting that a circuit court enter an extreme risk protection order (ERPO) for an individual. House Bill 4146 would prohibit an individual who was subject to an Extreme Risk Protection Order (ERPO) from qualifying for a pistol license and a concealed pistol license (CPL). The other two bills would add sentencing guidelines for felonies proposed under the ERPO Act and exempt the serving of an ERPO from specified service requirements.

Each bill is tie-barred to House Bill 4145. House Bill 4145 is a companion bill to Senate Bill 83 which is tie-barred to House Bill 4146 and 4147 and has passed the Senate and the House.

BRIEF FISCAL IMPACT

Taken together, the bills would have indeterminate, but negative, fiscal impacts on State and local government. These impacts would arise as a result of, among other things, increased workloads in local court systems and the Supreme Court Administrative Office (SCAO); increased administrative and training costs for local law enforcement agencies; increased resource demands on community supervision, jails, and correctional facilities; and programing costs to allow for data entry of ERPOs within the Law Enforcement Information Network (LEIN).
