Summary

The Public Safety Officers Procedural Bill of Rights Act prohibits any punitive action, or denial of promotion on grounds other than merit, against a public safety officer, as defined, without providing the officer with specified administrative procedural protections, including, but not limited to, the officer's right to inspect his or her own personnel file and an opportunity for the officer to file an administrative appeal under certain conditions. This bill would prohibit a public agency from taking punitive action, or denying promotion on grounds other than merit, against a public safety officer, because the officer's name was placed on a "Brady list," as defined. The bill would further prohibit the introduction of any evidence in an administrative appeal of a punitive action that the officer's name was placed on a Brady list, except as provided. The bill would specifically not prohibit a public agency from taking punitive or personnel action against a public safety officer based on the underlying acts or omissions for which that officer's name was placed on the Brady list.
