TO:	Honorable John Whitmire, Chair, Senate Committee on Criminal Justice
FROM:	Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	SB147 by Rodríguez (Relating to the violation of certain court orders or conditions of bond in a family violence, sexual assault or abuse, stalking, or trafficking case.), As Introduced

The bill would amend the Penal Code to include trafficking as one of the cases in which the violation of bond conditions or court orders qualifies as a criminal offense.  The bill would add trafficking as one of the types of cases in which the bureau of identification and records is required to collect information on bond conditions and protective orders.
 
The Office of Court Administration indicates that bill provisions would not have a significant fiscal implication to the court system. Based on the analysis of the Department of Public Safety, duties and responsibilities associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be accomplished by utilizing existing resources.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
