The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 12, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 13–3. On January 27, 2000 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on February 3, 2000 and was referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 29, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 4121). On April 20, 2000 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 17, 2000 the House voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 18, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 1, 2000, making it Chapter 232 of the session laws. It took effect on January 1, 2001.
