Description
Assembly Bill 1071 (Kalra; Stats. 2025, ch. 721) amended provisions of the Racial Justice Act by, among other changes, adding a service requirement to Penal Code section 745. In cases involving represented applicants who allege a violation of the act by law enforcement, counsel for the applicant must now serve a copy of the petition on the law enforcement agency that employed the officer. The Family and Juvenile Law Advisory Committee proposes revising two forms to implement AB 1071 in juvenile court and to make clarifying nonsubstantive changes.
