Summary

The House Judiciary Committee held a brief meeting where two bills were taken off notice and one was rolled for three weeks; members also made several personal announcements and the committee adjourned.

NASHVILLE — The Tennessee House Judiciary Committee met and cleared routine calendar business on Jan. 23, taking two bills off notice and rolling a second bill for three weeks before adjourning.

The committee, with 18 members present, moved the day’s calendar forward after brief personal announcements and guest recognitions. One member introduced Amelia Haymaker, described in the meeting as an intern and a junior at UT studying political science, and Representative Alexander welcomed Cub Scout Pack 37 from Johnson City.

On the agenda, the committee addressed three numbered items. The first, identified in the transcript as "house bill 12 71" and described as sponsored by leader Cochran, was requested to be taken off notice and was cleared "without objection." The committee then agreed to move to the second item, recorded as "house bill 6 61" by chairman White, which the committee agreed to roll for three weeks at the request on the floor. The third calendar item, noted in the transcript as "house bill 8 0 9" by chairman Grills, was likewise taken off notice without objection.

The meeting transcript records these procedural outcomes but does not include roll-call vote tallies for the calendar actions; the clerk earlier reported 18 members present and a quorum. The committee concluded its calendar business and a member moved to adjourn; the motion was accepted and the meeting was ordered adjourned.

Meeting minutes and any updated committee calendars should be consulted for bill titles, sponsors and future scheduling; the short verbal record in this meeting is largely procedural and does not include debate on the substantive measures.
