Lokale automatische Übersetzung · Originalsprache der Quelle
Zusammenfassung
The Department of Justice is publishing this interim rule to implement section 203(b) of Pub. L. 108-405, the Justice for All Act of 2004. The Justice for All Act of 2004 authorizes the Department of Justice to treat offenses in certain specified categories as qualifying Federal offenses for purposes of DNA sample collection. This rule amends regulations to reflect new categories of Federal offenses subject to DNA sample collection. The Justice for All Act amendment added "[a]ny felony" as a specified offense category in 42 U.S.C. 14135a(d)--thereby permitting the collection of DNA samples from all convicted Federal felons. This rule includes the new "any felony" category and does not change the coverage of misdemeanors in certain categories already included under prior law.
