Propose a change

Title 5 Courts

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

(a) In any judicial proceedings before the circuit court, unless waived by the parties whenever the presiding judge of a circuit court shall deem it necessary, or upon the request of either party, the court shall provide for the reporting of the testimony and proceedings, with objections made, the rulings of the court, and oral and written charges. The reporting may be made by stenographic reporting, electronic recording or other appropriate means authorized by the court. (b) The testimony and proceedings shall be retained and preserved for at least twelve (12) months after entry of final judgment, sentence, or order on appeal if an appeal is taken.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
