The Story

It was introduced on January 7, 2009 and referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 14, 2009. The committee held work sessions on January 21, 2009 and February 11, 2009. The committee met in executive session on February 12, 2009 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 19–1 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0312h). The committee's amendment (0312h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 4, 2009, changing the text of the bill. On March 4, 2009 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 18, 2009 and was referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 7, 2009. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1982s) was adopted on a voice vote on June 3, 2009, changing the text of the bill. On June 3, 2009 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 10, 2009 the House adopted “House Non-Concurs w/Senate AM #1982s(NT) & Requests Comm of Conf (Rep Cote)” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on June 15, 2009 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. The bill was enrolled on June 24, 2009 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 29, 2009, making it Chapter 128 of the session laws.
