SB82 creates a new "risk protection order" that allows courts to temporarily seize firearms and ammunition from individuals deemed to pose a significant risk of harm to themselves or others. Law enforcement or designated parties can petition a court for these orders, and a judge can authorize the seizure of weapons if they find sufficient evidence of danger. The seized firearms and ammunition would be held during the protection order period, which can be renewed if the risk persists.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
