New Jersey A3402 prohibits the release of home addresses of certain public safety employees by governmental entities.

New Jersey A3402 amends the Open Public Records Act to exclude the home addresses of corrections officers, parole officers, probation officers, and current and retired law enforcement officers from the definition of "government record." This means these addresses will not be available to the public. The bill also requires custodians of government records to redact these addresses from any records before granting public access, unless the information is sought for use by a governmental agency in carrying out its functions, or a private person seeking to enforce a child support order.
