New Hampshire HB1428 establishes procedures for handling complaints of criminal misconduct by state officials and law enforcement.

New Hampshire HB1428 amends RSA 7 to create a new section detailing procedures for handling complaints of criminal misconduct by state officials and law enforcement. The bill mandates that complaints be submitted in writing and include the complainant's identifying information. Anonymous complaints are generally not reviewed, though confidentiality may be maintained upon request. The department of justice must log complaints and conduct a preliminary review to determine if they warrant investigation.
