Committee approves conference draft to formalize handling of protective orders
Summary
A Senate–House conference voted to approve CD1 for SB 3083 to formalize how protective orders are handled, aiming to reduce a backlog previously left in the judiciary.
The conference committee approved Senate Bill 3083, Senate Draft 2, House Draft 2 (CD1), a measure the panel said will formalize handling of protective orders. The chair said the draft "just formalizes the handling of protective orders," and managers from both the Senate and House indicated they were ready to vote on the circulated CD1.
Managers on the Senate and House sides recorded affirmative votes and the chair announced the measure had passed in conference, noting the change is intended to prevent orders from accumulating in the judiciary. The conference transcript records multiple "Aye" votes from managers on both sides; the panel and managers confirmed agreement and the chair closed the item, saying "we have a bill."
