Bill overview
This bill aims to improve criminal procedure in Nevada by establishing clearer guidelines for disclosing evidence to defendants. It defines the ‘Brady-Giglio list’ as a system for tracking evidence that could help a defendant, requiring prosecuting agencies to maintain policies regarding its placement and officer involvement. The bill also mandates that prosecuting agencies notify law enforcement officers about their inclusion on this list and provides a process for officers to request reconsideration of their placement, while limiting disclosure of information about officers on the list.
