The changes to House Bill No. 1336 clarify the procedures for issuing orders that prohibit individuals from contacting their victims when they are charged with certain violent crimes. The amendment specifies that if a court issues such an order before charges are formally filed, it will expire at the individual's arraignment or within 72 hours if no charges are brought. This matters because it ensures that victims have legal protection during the time leading up to the trial while also providing a clear timeline for the duration of the contact prohibition.
