The Story
It was introduced on February 15, 2001 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 7, 2001. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. On March 29, 2001 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 29, 2001 and was referred to the House Children and Family Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 24, 2001. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it by a vote of 15–1, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 24, 2001 the House voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on June 5, 2001 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 12, 2001, making it Chapter 66 of the session laws. It took effect on June 12, 2001.
