Committee discusses S 109; chief justice language added, vote deferred to after recess
Summary
Committee members briefly addressed S 109, noting minimal changes since the last draft and the addition of language requested by the chief justice; members agreed to resume consideration after a recess.
The Judiciary Committee on April 2 briefly discussed S 109 and agreed to resume consideration after a scheduled recess, noting the bill had seen limited content changes overnight and that a chief-justice addition had been incorporated.
A committee member asked whether members had had adequate time to review the bill; other members confirmed there were no substantive content changes overnight aside from a chief-justice addition. One member said the adjustment amounted to one- or two-word changes or a sentence-to-sentence insertion and that they were comfortable moving forward.
Committee members scheduled to return at 11:00 a.m. to continue consideration; no formal motion or vote on S 109 is recorded in the provided transcript segment. The transcript does not include the full text of the chief-justice addition or further debate.
