12:15 PM -- SB16-140



Senator Sonnenberg, prime sponsor, presented Senate Bill 16-140 and amendment L.004 (Attachment A), which strikes everything below the enacting clause. Under current law, a motor vehicle dealer has 30 days following a sale to deliver or facilitate the delivery of the vehicle's certificate of title. At the time of sale, the dealer issues a temporary registration plate so that the vehicle can be driven by the purchaser before the title is received and the vehicle can be registered.

The bill exempts any amount of time within the first 120 days during which the dealer is awaiting information or action from another party from counting towards the 30-day deadline. In addition, the dealer may issue a second temporary registration plate to the owner if every reasonable action necessary has been taken by the dealer to facilitate delivery of the title. The bill also clarifies that the holder of a lien on a motor vehicle need not submit the certificate of title to a county clerk and recorder office in order to perfect the lien.
