Summary

Existing law requires a court to notify the Department of Justice of specified court actions that would result in an individual being prohibited from possessing firearms and deadly weapons or result in the individual no longer being subject to that prohibition. Under existing law, notice to the department is required when, among other instances, a person has been found mentally incompetent to stand trial, a person has been found not guilty of specified crimes by reason of insanity, or a person has been placed under conservatorship and prohibited from possessing firearms or deadly weapons. Existing law requires the court to notify the department as soon as possible, but not later than 2 court days after taking the relevant action. The court is required to submit these notices in an electronic format, as prescribed by the department. This bill would reduce that notification deadline from 2 court days to one court day after taking the relevant action.
