Title

Electronic non-traffic citations, verification of by a law enforcement officer further provided for, Secs. 12-12-60, 32-1-4 am'd.

Description

Under existing law, a law enforcement officer may use the electronic uniform non-traffic citation and complaint for certain non-traffic offenses and the ticket is generated in an arresting officer's vehicle via computer.

This bill would revise the requirement of verification or swearing of electronic traffic and electronic non-traffic tickets issued by law enforcement officers to provide that the electronic transmission to an appropriate clerk of court of the contents of the ticket with the officer's unique identification for the transmission constitutes the officer's declaration that the officer is making a verified complaint.
