Official summary

Legislative Counsel’s Digest (official, as of the latest version). Written by nonpartisan legislative staff; reproduced verbatim.

Existing law establishes the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) to set minimum standards for the recruitment and training of peace officers and to develop training courses and curriculum. Existing law authorizes POST to suspend or revoke the certification of a peace officer if the peace officer has engaged in any serious misconduct, as specified. Existing law requires POST to adopt by regulation a definition of “serious misconduct” that serves as the criteria to be considered for ineligibility for, or revocation of, certification, as provided.

This bill would additionally authorize POST to suspend or revoke the certification of a peace officer who commits specified theft under color of authority, where the peace officer acted with specific intent to permanently deprive the owner of the property.

This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 13510.8 of the Penal Code proposed by AB 1896 to be operative only if this bill and AB 1896 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
