 9 vehicle, including transcripts or memoranda thereof, involving a person

 S. 3926 2

 1 of the recordings under this paragraph the prosecution intends to intro-
 2 duce at trial or a pre-trial hearing. If the discoverable materials
 3 under this paragraph exceed ten hours in total length, the prosecution
 4 may disclose only the recordings that it intends to introduce at trial
 5 or a pre-trial hearing, along with a list of the source and approximate
 6 quantity of other recordings and their general subject matter if known,
 7 and the defendant shall have the right upon request to obtain recordings
 8 not previously disclosed. The prosecution shall disclose the requested
 9 materials as soon as practicable and not less than fifteen calendar days
 10 after the defendant's request, unless an order is obtained pursuant to
 11 section 245.70 of this article. The prosecution may withhold the names
 12 and identifying information of any person who contacted 911 without the
 13 need for a protective order pursuant to section 245.70 of this article,
 14 provided, however, the defendant may move the court for disclosure. If
 15 the prosecution intends to call such person as a witness at a trial or
 16 hearing, the prosecution must disclose the name and contact information
 17 of such witness no later than fifteen days before such trial or hearing,
 18 or as soon as practicable.
 19 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.
