Judiciary Committee Issues Divided Report on LD 1096

“After the effective date of the rules as adopted or amended, all laws in conflict with the rules are of no further effect.”

At a work session on April 16, 2021, the Judiciary Committee issued a divided report almost certainly insuring failure of the bill. See more on the Legislative Website http://legislature.maine.gov/LawMakerWeb/summary.asp?ID=280079631
