Amends TCA Title 36; Title 39 and Title 40.
Tennessee SB1184 mandates that individuals subject to a protective order must surrender their firearms to a designated law enforcement agency within 48 hours, replacing the current option of transferring firearms to a third party. The bill also requires individuals pleading guilty to domestic assault to surrender their firearms to law enforcement and eliminates the provision allowing respondents to resume possession of firearms once the protective order expires. Additionally, the bill directs the administrative office of the courts to create an affidavit of firearms dispossession form.
