The bill was referred to the Clerk for enrollment printing and presentation to the Governor.

Reps. Stapleton, Lindberg, Roy Schmidt, Byrum, Irwin, Lipton, Stallworth, Rutledge, Oakes and Cavanagh, having reserved the right to explain their nay vote, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I voted no on HB 4770 because, despite the fact that the Senate removed reference to University and Community College employees, there remain questions and serious problems with this bill. First and foremost the bill appears to be in violation of Article XI, Section 5 of Michigan’s Constitution which gives the Michigan Civil Service Commission plenary authority to regulate conditions of employment for classified service. It also violates Michigan’s long-held principles of local control and is discriminatory.”

The Speaker laid before the House

House Bill No. 4701, entitled

A bill to amend 1943 PA 240, entitled “State employees’ retirement act,” by amending sections 1b, 20, 27, 35, 38, 47, 48, 49, 50, 55, 64, 65, 67a, 68, and 68c (MCL 38.1b, 38.20, 38.27, 38.35, 38.38, 38.47, 38.48, 38.49, 38.50, 38.55, 38.64, 38.65, 38.67a, 38.68, and 38.68c), sections 1b, 20, and 48 as amended by 2002 PA 93, sections 27 and 67a as amended by 2004 PA 109, section 35 as added and sections 38, 68, and 68c as amended by 2010 PA 185, section 47 as amended by 2002 PA 743, section 49 as amended by 2008 PA 353, sections 50 and 65 as added by 1996 PA 487, section 55 as amended by 2010 PA 256, and section 64 as amended by 2004 PA 33, and by adding sections 20j, 35a, 50a, 63a, 68b, and 68e.

______

Rep. Potvin, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

My NO vote on HB 5071 was because this vote by lawmakers totally eliminated the only district court in the 84th District. This makes no sense. The current work load in the 84th District is 3.7 judgeships and 4 judges currently serve our growing community. This judgeship could have been combined with a neighboring District or kept the same at 4 judgeships.

Rural Michigan does not have the skilled judges to step in and hear the normal cases of a District Court. Thus, a great disservice has been placed on Missaukee and Wexford Counties. Thus, my NO vote on HB 5071.”

House Bill No. 5073, entitled

A bill to amend 1961 PA 236, entitled “Revised judicature act of 1961,” by amending sections 8125 and 8134 (MCL 600.8125 and 600.8134), section 8125 as amended by 1995 PA 112 and section 8134 as amended by 2001 PA 253.

Rep. Glardon, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

The 35th Circuit Court that encompasses Shiawassee County has four judges: 1 circuit, 1 probate, and 2 district judges. The Judicial Resources Report (JRR) reports that this circuit is over-judged by 0.9 District and under-judged by 0.2 Circuit/Probate, which nets 0.7. Based on this analysis, the Supreme Court Administrative Office estimates that the courts in Shiawassee County can operate with 3.3 judges. Eliminating one district judgeship as proposed in House Bill 5074 would leave the number of judges at 3 and could potentially leave Shiawassee County under-judged.

For this reason, I cannot support this bill at this time.”

Rep. Nesbitt, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I believe there is a need for consistency and integrity on reviewing the cut off figure for the elimination of judicial positions throughout the state. A reduction of a judge with anything less than an excess of one is simply not a rational or reasonable expectation. Each one of these bills contained judge elimination that I could not support.”

House Bill No. 5075, entitled

A bill to amend 1961 PA 236, entitled “Revised judicature act of 1961,” by amending sections 528 and 8144 (MCL 600.528 and 600.8144), section 528 as amended by 1988 PA 134 and section 8144 as amended by 2002 PA 92.
