The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 1994 and referred to the Senate Insurance committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 27, 1994. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 10, 1994 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the House on February 16, 1994 and was referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 9, 1994. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 12–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was enrolled on March 24, 1994 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. On March 31, 1994 the House voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on March 31, 1994 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. It became law without the governor's signature on April 26, 1994, as Chapter 37. The governor neither signed it nor returned it, and the docket records it as enacted under Part II, Article 44 of the state constitution.
