News from the Legislature

Yesterday, the Senate Judiciary Committee passed the implied consent law discussed here previously. They removed a House amendment to the bill, so the two bodies will have to decide which bill will take precedence and become law. Either is fine. The main effect of the new law will be to move the implied consent violation to Sessions Court, unless the prosecutor wants to keep the DUI and implied consent together.
More will be posted when the conflict is resolved.
