RE: H.B. No. 1992
H.D. 1
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Fifth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2010
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Judiciary, to which was referred H.B. No. 1992 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO THE INTERMEDIATE APPELLATE COURT,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to make permanent the authority of intermediate court judges to subpoena witnesses, compel the production of evidence, and administer oaths.
The Judiciary supported this bill.
Your Committee has amended this bill by extending the repeal date of the underlying law for another two years, rather than making it permanent. In addition, your Committee has changed the effective date of this bill to December 21, 2058, to encourage further discussion.
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 H.B. No. 1992, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 1992, H.D. 1, and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary,
|
