HB 652 -- CERTIFIED MAIL

SPONSOR:  Pratt

COMMITTEE ACTION:  Voted "do pass" by the Committee on Judiciary
by a vote of 14 to 0.

This bill defines "certified mail" and "certified mail with
return receipt requested" as the terms relate to the laws of this
state to include any parcel or letter carried by a delivery
service that allows a sender or recipient to electronically track
its location.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on state funds in FY 2010, FY 2011, and
FY 2012.

PROPONENTS:  Supporters say that using delivery services with a
tracking system makes sense because the procedures are in place
to make sure that the parcel or letter gets to its destination.

Testifying for the bill was Representative Pratt.

OPPONENTS:  There was no opposition voiced to the committee.
