HB 1982 -- MEANS TO EFFECT AN ARREST

SPONSOR: Merideth

Currently, a law enforcement officer may use all necessary means to effect an arrest after the officer has given notice of the intention to arrest the defendant and the defendant flees or forcibly resists. The bill repeals this provision.

This bill is the same as HB 1113 (2019).
