HB 2114 Summary

• Requires prosecuting agencies to provide written notice at least 10 days before placing a law enforcement officer's name in a Rule 15.1 database, with notice sent by mail or email to the officer's current or last known employment address.

• Mandates written notice include the officer's right to request relevant materials, provide input before placement decision, receive notice of the final determination, and request reconsideration within 10 business days of learning of placement.

• Allows officers to submit written requests for reconsideration with supporting evidence; if approved on the merits, the officer's name must be removed from the database.

• Requires prosecuting agencies maintaining Rule 15.1 databases to adopt policies specifying placement criteria, notification procedures, reconsideration rights, and timeframes for final decisions.

• Prohibits law enforcement agencies from using Rule 15.1 database placement as the sole basis for demotion, suspension, termination, or other disciplinary action, though underlying facts may support separate disciplinary proceedings.
