Iowa SF340 mandates electronic tracking and monitoring for individuals violating no-contact orders.

Iowa SF340 amends the state code to require individuals who violate no-contact orders to be equipped with electronic tracking and monitoring systems. These systems must provide alerts to the protected party and law enforcement when the defendant enters a protective zone, defined as any area within 1,000 feet of the protected party’s residence or place of employment. The bill applies to violations of no-contact orders issued for contempt, sexual abuse, domestic abuse assault, older individual assault, harassment, stalking, or sexual abuse.
