Session – April 29, 2013

We went through nine bills in fairly short order on Monday.  H.F. 829 relates to Evictions, Time for Appeal and Rent Escrow.  It extends from 10 to 15 days the time from the issuance of the judgment within which a party may appeal. It makes permanent the provisions of the federal Renter Protection Act that allow a tenant to remain in a foreclosed property for the greater of 90 days after expiration of the redemption period or the expiration of the current lease.  The vote was 71-59.

S.F 345/H.F. 410 is a bill that permits a personal representative or heir of a deceased victim to request or enforce an order of restitution if the victim dies before or after a request for restitution is made or an order is issued. This passed 130-0.
