STAND. COM. REP. NO. 224
Honolulu, Hawaii
S.D. 1
President of the Senate
Twenty-Fifth State Legislature
State of Hawaii
Madam:
Your Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs, to which was referred S.B. No. 1213 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO CIVIL RELIEF FOR MILITARY RESERVE COMPONENT PERSONNEL,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to prevent any court from commencing a proceeding to enforce a lien or foreclosure action against real property owned by a reservist of the United States Armed Forces or member of the Hawaii National Guard until that reservist or member is redeployed from active duty for a period of one year.
Testimony in support of this measure was submitted by one state agency. Written testimony presented to the Committee may be reviewed on the Legislature's website.
Your Committee finds that it can take a considerable amount of time for a reservist of the United States Armed Forces or member of the Hawaii National Guard who is deployed out of Hawaii to readjust themselves upon their return from deployment to attend to personal financial matters in a satisfactory manner.
Your Committee has amended this measure by making a technical, nonsubstantive amendment for the purpose of clarity.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 1213, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 1213, S.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Commerce and Consumer Protection.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Public Safety and Military Affairs,
