The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2001 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 31, 2001. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 1, 2001 the Senate voted to pass it 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 Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 17, 2001. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 13–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 17, 2001 the House voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on May 24, 2001 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (1305) was adopted to correct technical errors found after passage. 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 64 of the session laws. It took effect on June 12, 2001.
