Summary

Summary

The chairs of the Probate and Mental Health Advisory Committee and the Criminal Law Advisory Committee recommend adopting chapter 15, Elections Code Reports, in title 10, division 4 of the California Rules of Court and placing rule 10.970 in the new chapter. The Judicial Council adopted rule 10.970, effective January 1, 2024, to implement Assembly Bill 2841, which added section 2211.5 to the Elections Code to require trial courts to report to the Secretary of State judicial determinations under Elections Code sections 2208-2211 disqualifying a person from voting or restoring a person’s right to register to vote. The legislation expressly required the Judicial Council to adopt rules and forms.
