Hawaii HB2090 amends domestic abuse order laws to allow courts to withhold petition records from public inspection upon request.

Hawaii HB2090 amends the Hawaii Revised Statutes to allow courts to withhold domestic abuse order petition records from public inspection if the court denies a temporary restraining order or a protective order. These records would remain accessible to law enforcement officers without a court order. The changes apply to both temporary restraining orders and protective orders, ensuring that sensitive information is protected while still being available to those who need it for law enforcement purposes.
