The Senate Judiciary Committee met at 3:00 PM today to discuss four bills, all of which were adopted to be reported to the full Senate with recommendation for passage.
The first of these bills was SB 201, which discusses stalking and harassment charges in the state. The purpose of the bill is to generally clarify the elements of harassment and what counts for an offense.
The committee also passed two bills on the promulgation of rules and regulations, one for the Department of Revenue and one for the Department of Transportation.
The committee also adopted SB 509, which would work to provide venue for custody allocation actions in situations that do not involve divorce. This would primarily apply to family situations in which the parents of a child were never married.
