Committee schedules hearings on unclaimed remains and Supreme Court nomination records
Summary
The chair announced hearings on HB 2331 (authorizing disposition of unclaimed remains by district coroners) and SB 299 (requiring certain Supreme Court nomination commission records be released under the Open Records Act); both were noted for forthcoming hearings.
The committee chair announced two hearings scheduled for upcoming meetings. The first, HB 2331, would authorize district coroners to dispose of unclaimed remains of deceased persons; the chair described the topic as potentially sensitive and indicated a hearing is set for the next day.
The second, SB 299, would require the Supreme Court nomination commission to release certain records under the Open Records Act; the chair noted that the committee will hear that bill on Thursday. Committee members did not debate the merits of either bill during this session.
No votes or committee actions were taken on either measure during this meeting; both will proceed to formal hearings as scheduled.
