2017 House Bill 4779

Senate Roll Call 792: Passed

To adopt a uniform electronic legal material law governing the use of authoritative legal material that is posted on the internet, including state laws, rules and court documents. A national uniform law commission describes the project as creating a “technology-neutral framework for providing online legal material with the same level of trustworthiness traditionally provided by publication in a law book.” The project requires and bill proposes methods to determine that official electronic legal material is unaltered, is accessible to the public on a permanent basis, and is preserved on a permanent basis either in electronic or print form. The Legislative Service Bureau would be deemed the official "publisher".
