Summary

Existing federal law, commonly known as Public Law 280, authorizes the state to exercise jurisdiction over offenses committed by or against Indians in the areas of Indian country within the state, and gives state criminal laws the same force and effect within Indian country as they have elsewhere in the state. Existing state law creates the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training that, among other things, establishes levels of standards and training for peace officers, as specified. Existing law requires the commission to implement courses of training related to various topics applicable to peace officers. This bill would require every police chief, county sheriff, or other head of a law enforcement agency to assess his or her jurisdiction to determine if any Indian tribal lands lie within the jurisdiction. The bill would require the police chief, county sheriff, or other head of a law enforcement agency, if he or she determines that Indian tribal lands exist within his or her jurisdiction, to ensure that those peace officers employed by the agency who work in, or adjacent to, Indian tribal lands, or who may be responsible for responding to calls for service on, or adjacent to, Indian tribal lands, complete a course that includes, but is not limited to, a review of Public Law 280. By creating new duties for local officials, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions.
