What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law permits a court to suspend for up to two years the operating

privilege of an individual who has failed to pay a monetary judgment entered against

the individual. This bill reduces the maximum time for which the operating privilege

may be suspended by a court under these circumstances from two years to one year.
