|
|
Legislature, Regular Session, 2007, That Senate Rule 12.03 be |
|
|
suspended in part as provided by Senate Rule 12.08 to enable the |

|
|

|
|
action on the following matters: |
|
|
(1) Senate Rule 12.03(4) is suspended to permit the |
|
|
committee to add a SECTION to the bill to amend Section 6.02, |
|
|
House Bill No. 391, Acts of the 80th Legislature, Regular |
|
|
Session, 2007, to read as follows: |
|
|
SECTION 5. Section 6.02, H.B. No. 391, Acts of the 80th |
|
|
Legislature, Regular Session, 2007, as effective September 1, |
|
|
2007, is amended to read as follows: |
|
|
SECTION 6.02. The changes in law made by this article |
|
|
apply only to[:
|
|
|
[(1)
the estate of a decedent who dies before the
|
|
|
effective date of this article, if the probate or administration
|
|
|
of the estate is pending on or commenced on or after the effective
|
|
|
date of this article; and
|
|
|
[(2)] the estate of a decedent who dies on or after |
|
|
the effective date of this article. |
|
|
Explanation: The addition of the SECTION to the bill is |
|
|
necessary to make a technical change in the applicability of an |
|
|
amendment made by SECTION 6.01, House Bill No. 391, Acts of the |
|
|
80th Legislature, Regular Session, 2007, to Section 85, Texas |
|
|
Probate Code. |
|
|
(2) Senate Rule 12.03(1) is suspended to permit the |
|
|
committee to change the text of the SECTION of the bill that is |
|
|
renumbered in the conference committee report as SECTION 6 to |
|
|
read as follows: |
|
|
SECTION 6. The changes in law made by Sections 1, 2, 3, |
|
|
and 4 of this Act apply only to the estate of a decedent who dies |
|
|
on or after the effective date of this Act. The estate of a |
|
|
decedent who dies before the effective date of this Act is |
|
|
governed by the law in effect on the date of the decedent's death, |
|
|
and the former law is continued in effect for that purpose. |
|
|
Explanation: The change to the applicability provision |
|
|
of the bill is necessary to reflect the addition of SECTION 5 to |
|
|
the conference committee report and to avoid having the |
|
|
applicability provision affect that added SECTION. |
