AB 2286: Criminal procedure: attorney visits: medical settings.
What AB 2286 does, verified August 17, 2026
The bill aims to clarify the process of attorney visits to prisoners in certain settings. Currently, if a prisoner is in a jail, prison, or a medical setting, an attorney is allowed to visit them after their arrest. The bill would make it clear that officers who refuse or neglect to allow these visits are liable for penalties, both criminal and civil. The bill also includes some technical changes to the existing law.
