\"This has to do with HVAC systems,\" Senator Dixon said. \"When you purchase extended warranties currently, you have to register that item. This would do away with that, having to register the item because the manufacturer already has your information.\" He added that the bill would ensure transferability so the warranty \"runs with the system\" through multiple sales within a warranty period.

A committee member raised a question about manufacturer certification for installers and how consumers would verify certification if registration were removed. In response, Dixon said the bill \"clarifies in there that it must be installed by a licensed contractor,\" and that the warranty would start on the installation date. The transcript records a committee member noting some manufacturers require certified installers for certain products and asking how the bill would address that certification; Dixon said he would \"look into that.\" The transcript does not record a technical fix or amendment being adopted in committee.

The Rules meeting discussion recorded the policy goals and implementation questions but did not record a committee vote on SB 112 during this session.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","02/13/2025 Senate Committee on Rules","oneSentenceSummary","Senate Bill 112, introduced as a new measure by Senator Dixon, would eliminate HVAC extended-warranty registration requirements, make warranties transferable with the system, and require installation by a licensed contractor; committee members asked questions about manufacturer-certified installers.","taxTitle","Rules, SENATE, Committees, Legislative, Georgia","taxId",17679,"location","Georgia","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6326477,"Senator describes bill to add judge to Alapaha judicial circuit; Rules committee discussion but no calendar action recorded",32,251000,283000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2324431-fbdf6efa77adce0adfb276d375779f18&start=251&end=283","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2324431-fbdf6efa77adce0adfb276d375779f18/thumbnail_251000.jpg","/articles/6326477/Georgia/Senator-describes-bill-to-add-judge-to-Alapaha-judicial-circuit-Rules-committee-discussion-but-no-calendar-action-recorded","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6326477-e425ffce37cf192b2ead2d50318519fb/orig.mp4?Expires=1773620896&Signature=YalZHwWR6Q-MqnNEZs2vleJ43~YI888y8kVuFBDvUwMffMM3EQ4fHHqfdMGuIrCUcgfRu5PeG7wti7vDoDeUPFBjjekP3cNT21CV50TACj3pjFzA-tQOqqzw~jjUOMe540DKZqSNxAAJHf9MLAdrtr5Kjd9IsK7JcOhJheAP6aPwhs2fCiSyBNh8L9zrTO1Z1-YdKXX0h9XPAZQZXxUKTsBe7tuqheEDS299ZmfCs0ywfrwdIIWPelCPXcdb~aWaOZUFlghfD4SMI6NmmVQKcNU49ULFWvGm72qdsPRJHFDlmh8fwp5g8sxBOOoP8kbHBmQaiGv0zmZ3F84-s3V8YQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Senate Bill 10, introduced by Senator Goodman, would create a new judgeship in the Alapaha judicial circuit, the bill's sponsor told the Senate Rules Committee on Feb. 13, 2025.

\"SB 10 is simply creating a new judge position in the Alapaha judicial circuit,\" Senator Goodman said, adding that the state's Judicial Council ranked the circuit the No. 1 need in the state and that the circuit has not added a judge since 1979. He also said SB 10 \"passed out of the senate judiciary committee unanimously.\"

Committee members did not take a separate calendar vote on SB 10 during the recorded Rules meeting. Later in the session members moved other bills to the Rules calendar; the transcript does not show SB 10 being included in that motion.

The transcript shows some light banter between committee members about committee attendance and scheduling; there is no recorded motion, amendment or vote on SB 10 in the meeting record provided.","Senate Bill 10 would create a new judgeship in the Alapaha judicial circuit; sponsors said the Judicial Council ranked the circuit highest in need and the circuit has not had an added judge since 1979.

Senator Albers moved to place the three items on the calendar; Senator Robertson seconded. \"All in favor, say aye,\" the chair called; after the ayes, the chair said, \"Motion passes unanimous.\" The committee record shows the motion carried without recorded individual roll-call votes.

Committee members discussed numerous other bills during the meeting but limited the formal calendar vote to the three measures. Speakers referenced several bills by title earlier in the session, including proposals on judiciary staffing, timber relief, patient access to non‑FDA treatments and motor‑vehicle franchise law updates, but those items were not part of the committee's calendar motion.

The committee did not record a roll-call tally in the meeting transcript for the calendar motion; the chair characterized the outcome as unanimous. No amendments or referral conditions were recorded in the transcript for the three items added to the calendar.
