The Story

It was introduced on January 28, 1999 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 18, 1999. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 25, 1999 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 25, 1999 and was referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 11, 1999. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 14–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 20, 1999 the House voted to pass it with changes. On June 8, 1999 the Senate adopted “Senate Concurs W/House Amendment” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Pignatelli. The bill was enrolled on June 16, 1999 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 25, 1999, making it Chapter 153 of the session laws. It took effect on January 1, 2000.
