The Story

It was introduced on January 25, 2001 and referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 7, 2001. The committee held a work session on March 28, 2001. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on May 1, 2001, May 15, 2001, May 22, 2001, May 23, 2001, June 5, 2001 and October 25, 2001. The majority of the committee recommended that the House study it after the session ends. On January 10, 2002 the House voted to study it after the session ends on a voice vote. The committee held work sessions on August 13, 2002 and September 25, 2002. The committee reported back on its interim study of the bill: “NOT REC FOR LEGIS IN 2003”, by a vote of 14 to 0.
