Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Easier notarization for people in prison

If you are in a Nevada state prison and lack standard ID, a notary can still verify your identity. The notary may accept your inmate ID card with your name and photo. Or the notary may accept a declaration you sign under penalty of perjury that states who you are. These options count as satisfactory evidence of identity for notarial acts.

Better women’s health care in prison

The Department of Corrections asks each woman at intake about recent women’s health care and hygiene needs. Women in custody get needed medical and mental health care, including counseling and prescribed medication. An annual pelvic exam is provided at age 21 or older, or earlier if a provider recommends it based on history or risk. Annual mammograms are provided at age 45 and older, or at ages 40–44 if you ask, or earlier if a provider recommends it. Follow-up care after these exams is required. The prison must give free feminine hygiene products, your preferred type, with amounts adjusted on request.

Regimental discipline ended for probationers and inmates

The law ends the regimental discipline program in Nevada corrections. It repeals the statutes that created that program. Courts also can no longer order regimental discipline as a punishment for probation violations. Other sanctions remain, such as residential confinement, modifying probation, revoking probation, or executing the original sentence.
