Bill summary
Senate amendment to the 4th edition makes the following changes.
Expands the information that must be disclosed under GS 15A-1469 to include all information required by GS Chapter 15A, Article 48 (pertaining to discoverable evidence in a criminal proceeding in superior court) as if the parties have requested in writing that the other party comply with a discovery request (was, any evidence the DA or claimant's counsel intends to introduce at the hearing). Deems the Innocence Inquiry Commission (Commission) file disclosed. Provides that the statute does not prevent the three-judge panel from setting an earlier disclosure deadline or the parties from agreeing to provide earlier disclosure. Now requires good cause be shown (was, good cause as determined by the three-judge panel) for evidence not timely disclosed to be deemed admissible. Maintains other changes made to the statute in the previous edition.
