Establishes third degree crime for certain trespasses involving victim of domestic violence.
New Jersey A3732 amends the state's criminal code to establish a third degree crime for entering the dwelling of a domestic violence victim protected by a restraining order against the actor. The bill creates a presumption that the actor intended to cause annoyance, injury, or to commit a crime if a domestic violence restraining order is in place or if the actor has been convicted of or charged with a crime or offense arising from a domestic violence incident involving the victim. The bill also provides that no presumption of nonincarceration shall apply to persons convicted of such crime.
