Introduced Text

South Carolina H3389 grants individuals the right to appeal a court's decision denying immunity under the Protection of Persons and Property Act.

South Carolina H3389 amends the state code to allow a person to appeal a court's determination that they are not entitled to immunity under the Protection of Persons and Property Act, even if they subsequently plead guilty to the same offense. The bill ensures that a guilty plea does not bar judicial review. The act also stipulates that repealing or amending laws does not affect pending actions or liabilities incurred under the repealed or amended laws.
