HB610

Mississippi HB610 requires prosecutors to notify law enforcement officers before sending a Giglio letter or adding them to a Giglio list.

Mississippi HB610 mandates that prosecutors provide law enforcement officers with notice before sending a Giglio letter or adding their names to a Giglio list. The notice must include details about the incident, the officer's right to review documents and request counsel, and the opportunity to present their case. If a prosecutor decides to proceed, they must notify the officer in writing within 30 days, allowing the officer to appeal the decision in circuit court. The act also defines "Giglio letter" and "Giglio list" and outlines the prosecutor's role in the process.
