The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2016 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 19, 2016. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2016-1040s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (1040s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 24, 2016, changing the text of the bill. On March 24, 2016 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 5, 2016. The committee held a work session on April 12, 2016. The committee met in executive session on April 26, 2016 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 16–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2016-1401h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2016-1401h) was adopted on a voice vote on May 11, 2016, changing the text of the bill. On May 11, 2016 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 19, 2016 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Sharon Carson. The bill was enrolled on June 1, 2016 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 10, 2016, making it Chapter 245 of the session laws. It took effect on June 10, 2016.
