The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2017 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 26, 2017. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2017-0382s). The committee's amendment (2017-0382s) was adopted on a voice vote on February 16, 2017, changing the text of the bill. On February 16, 2017 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on February 16, 2017 and was referred to the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 22, 2017. The committee met in executive session on March 22, 2017 to vote on its recommendation.

The bill was enrolled on April 27, 2017 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 9, 2017, making it Chapter 36 of the session laws.
