HB 155 amends Section 11, Article 49.25, of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure to modify the confidentiality of certain autopsy records. Specifically, the bill clarifies that autopsy photographs and x-rays are exempt from required public disclosure under Chapter 552 of the Government Code (the Public Information Act), except under specific circumstances. These circumstances include disclosure through a legal subpoena, for cases involving deaths in law enforcement custody, or to the deceased person’s next of kin or legal representative. The bill also specifies that releasing such images to a next of kin or legal representative does not waive future confidentiality claims.
