The Story
It was introduced on January 25, 2001 and referred to the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 14, 2001. The committee held work sessions on February 21, 2001, April 3, 2001 and April 10, 2001. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held a work session on November 13, 2001. The majority of the committee recommended that the House study it after the session ends unanimously, 14–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 2, 2002 the House voted to study it after the session ends. The committee held work sessions on May 14, 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.
