2022 Criminal Legislative Summaries

It’s the most wonderful time of the year: legislative summaries are now available.

Though the North Carolina General Assembly has not yet adjourned, it does not expect to have votes during any of the sessions held for the remainder of the year. Nevertheless, there can always be surprises.

For now, you can read summaries of all of the criminal law and related legislation enacted during the 2022 legislative session here. Each summary provides a brief description of the act in question along with a link to the text of the act and, where available, links to blogs my colleagues and I wrote.

If any new bills are chaptered before the year is out, I will update the document accordingly. In the meantime, feel free to email me with any questions or comments.
