SCS/SB 937 - Under current law, criminal cases filed in Cole County shall follow procedures different from the Missouri Supreme Court Rules in order to obtain a change of venue for misdemeanors or felonies. This act provides that counties with 75,000 or fewer inhabitants shall follow procedures different from the Missouri Supreme Court Rules in order to obtain a change of venue for misdemeanors or felonies. Additionally, this act provides that in felony and misdemeanor cases, the application for change of venue must be filed not later than 10 days after the initial plea is entered. These provisions are identical to provisions in SCS/HB 2088, et al (2022). MARY GRACE PRINGLE
