AB 1317: Asset forfeiture: human trafficking.
What AB 1317 does, verified February 3, 2026
The bill aims to amend existing laws related to human trafficking. It would make it a felony to deprive someone of their personal liberty with the intent to engage in commercial sex acts. The law would also allow for the forfeiture of assets used to facilitate human trafficking, regardless of the victim's age. A procedure for seizing and managing these assets would be established, allowing prosecutors to petition for forfeiture. This change would apply to all human trafficking cases involving commercial sex acts.
