11:40 AM -- 3. Other business
The following acts were given preliminary approval to continue in the bill drafting process and assigned a CCUSL contact to work with CBA members and talk with potential sponsors:
· Revised Uniform Athlete Agents Act (Commissioner McGihon). Notes: Pretty much ready to go, needs sponsor.
· Uniform Commercial Real Estate Receivership Act (Commissioner Mielke). Notes: Some portions seem to be needed now as bar testimony highlighted gaps in current law; the entire act may not be right for Colorado at this point; may need to be put on a two year tract for consideration.
· Revised Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (Commissioners Levy & Shaffer). Notes: May be more viable if sections considered separately. One objection - Commissioner Gardner.
· Uniform Trust Decanting Act (Commissioner Steadman with Mr. Kent as back-up). Notes: Has a sponsor.
· Uniform Recognition & Enforcement of Canadian Domestic Violence Orders Act (Commissioner Gardner).
· Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act (Commissioners Keyser & Steadman, with Mr. Kent as back-up). Notes: Has bill sponsors.
· Uniform Voidable Transactions Act Amendments (2014) (Commissioners Grimshaw & Pike). Notes: Needs more time and work with CBA.
· Uniform Recognition of Substitute Decision-Making Documents Act (Commissioner McGihon & Mr. Stan Kent). Notes: Needs more time and work with CBA.
Commissioners made a preliminary decision not to pursue the following act at this time:
· Uniform Home Foreclosure Procedures Act.
Final act language should become available from the ULC towards the end of September. The Office of Legal Services will use the ULC final acts to have draft bills ready for discussion at the next CCUSL meeting to be scheduled for late October. Meeting notifications will be sent out once a date, time, and location have been determined.
Interested parties were encouraged to sign up for CCUSL email notifications. The commissioners briefly discussed the possibility of giving a presentation to the Joint Judiciary Committee prior to session and working with the CBA on a continuing legal education program.
