| Description: |
AB 668, as amended, Lieu. Trespass. Existing law makes it unlawful for persons to engage in certain
acts of trespass. In particular it is unlawful for a person who has
been convicted of a violent felony committed upon a particular
private property to enter upon that property after having been
informed by a peace officer that the property is not open to the
particular person; or to refuse or fail to leave the property upon
being asked to leave the property, as specified. This bill would expand the scope of this offense by providing that
during a specified timeframe it is unlawful for a person who has
been convicted of any felony, any misdemeanor, or a specified
infraction, committed upon a particular private property, to enter or
refuse or fail to leave that property after being informed by a
peace officer that the property is not open to the particular person,
or to refuse or fail to leave when asked, as specified. By expanding the scope of an existing crime, this bill would
impose a state-mandated local program. This bill would incorporate amendments to Section 602 of the Penal
Code proposed by AB 451 and AB 2324, contingent on the prior
enactment of those bills. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this
act for a specified reason. Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: yes.
