What’s in it

This bill relates to confidential records protected by Code chapter (public records) and juror questionnaires. Under current law, a completed juror questionnaire is not protected unless the court orders the sealing or partial sealing of a completed juror questionnaire. The bill makes a completed juror questionnaire a confidential record and it can only be released by an order from the court, a lawful custodian of the records, or by another person duly authorized to release such information.
