The Story

It was introduced on January 9, 1997 and referred to the House Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 18, 1997. The committee held a work session on March 5, 1997. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 11–2, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 18, 1997 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 27, 1997 and was referred to the Senate Banks committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 15, 1997. The committee voted unanimously, 6–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes. On May 8, 1997 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 20, 1997 the House voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 29, 1997 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 9, 1997, making it Chapter 116 of the session laws. It took effect on August 8, 1997.
