HB1708

Mississippi HB1708 establishes a domestic violence registry for individuals convicted of domestic violence offenses.

Mississippi HB1708 creates the Domestic Violence Registry Act, requiring the Department of Public Safety to maintain a publicly accessible registry of individuals convicted of domestic violence offenses. The registry includes the offender's full legal name, aliases, date of birth, and photograph, but excludes sensitive information like social security numbers and addresses. The registry applies to individuals convicted on or after July 1, 2026, and requires offenders with multiple convictions to register with the Department of Public Safety.
