Bill overview
The Judicial Protection Act aims to enhance the safety and privacy of judges, their families, and household members by establishing a process for protecting their personal information and preventing its public disclosure. It defines key terms like ‘immediate family member’ and ‘personal identifying information,’ and provides judges with a mechanism to request that public bodies and individuals refrain from posting or sharing this information. The act also outlines specific circumstances where disclosure is permitted and establishes legal remedies for non-compliance.
