STAND. COM. REP. NO. 1161
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2005
RE: S.B. No. 1864
S.D. 1
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2005
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred S.B. No. 1864, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT MAKING AN EMERGENCY APPROPRIATION OUT OF THE JUDICIARY COMPUTER SYSTEM SPECIAL FUND,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to make an emergency appropriation of $1,500,000 out of the Judiciary Computer System Special Fund for fiscal year 2004-2005 to pay for unanticipated expenses relating to the implementation of the Judiciary Information Management System (JIMS).
The Judiciary testified in support of this bill. A concerned individual suggested an amendment to the measure.
Your Committee finds that in the process of implementing the traffic module of JIMS, an integrated case management system that will improve the efficiency and accessibility of Hawaii courts, the Judiciary has encountered unanticipated expenses that would cause the Judiciary to exceed the current fiscal year's appropriation. This measure would appropriate the funds necessary to cover the unanticipated costs and prevent delays in the implementation of the JIMS project.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 1864, S.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary,
____________________________ SYLVIA LUKE, Chair |
