Officers cannot be discharged, disciplined, or have their certification revoked solely because a prosecuting agency placed them on a Brady-Giglio list or disclosed their status on such a list; discipline remains permitted for the underlying misconduct itself

-
Officers may file petitions in district court for judicial review of denied reconsideration requests, with the court authorized to order removal from a Brady-Giglio list if no reasonable basis exists for the placement
-
Public safety agencies cannot release officers' official photographs without written permission or a public records request, and must redact personal information (home address, phone, email, DOB, SSN, license number) from any public records
