1. In January of each year, the Attorney General and the district attorney of each county shall report to the Administrative Office of the United States Courts the information required to be reported pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 2519. A copy of the report must be filed with the Investigation Division of the Department of Public Safety. In the case of a joint application by the Attorney General and a district attorney both shall make the report.
2. Every justice of the Supreme Court or district judge who signs an order authorizing or denying an interception shall, within 30 days after the termination of the order or any extension thereof, file with the Investigation Division of the Department of Public Safety on forms approved by the Division a report containing the same information required to be reported pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 2519. The report must also indicate whether a party to an intercepted wire communication had consented to the interception.
3. The willful failure of any officer to report any information known to the officer which is required to be reported pursuant to subsection 1 or 2 constitutes malfeasance in office and, in such cases, the Secretary of State shall, when the wrong becomes known to the Secretary of State, institute legal proceedings for the removal of that officer.
4. The Investigation Division of the Department of Public Safety shall, on or before April 30 of each year, compile a report consisting of a summary and analysis of all reports submitted to the Division pursuant to this section during the previous calendar year. The report is a public record and may be inspected by any person during the regular office hours of the Division.
