§3871. Submission of sexual assault cases for review for prosecution
A law enforcement agency in possession of a complaint for an alleged sexual assault under Title 17‑A, chapter 11 shall within 60 days of receiving the complaint inform the appropriate prosecutor of any evidence and submit the complaint for review and a decision by the prosecutor regarding further investigation and commencement of prosecution. Failure of a law enforcement agency to inform the appropriate prosecutor of any evidence and submit a complaint to the appropriate prosecutor within 60 days as required by this section does not affect the validity of a later submission and prosecution. [PL 2019, c. 80, §1 (NEW); RR 2019, c. 1, Pt. A, §29 (RAL).]
