Overview
This bill establishes a three-year pilot program called the ‘Gun Court’ in Mercer County’s Superior Court. The goal is to create a specialized court to handle criminal cases involving guns or other dangerous weapons, aiming to improve efficiency and sentencing in these cases. The program will be overseen by the Administrative Office of the Courts, and their findings will be reported to the New Jersey Legislature to assess its effectiveness and feasibility for statewide expansion.
