Table consideration on the Uniform Wage Garnishmen PASS







02:12 PM -- 2h. Uniform Wage Garnishment Act



02:12 PM --
John Burrus, Independent Bankers of Colorado. His organization’s only concern is the treatment of wages in bank accounts. Commissioner McGihon invited Mr. Burrus to join a ULC study committee regarding this subject.



02:36 PM

Before taking action on the act, the commission noted that there seemed to be sufficient objections to the act to warrant tabling the bill for now. The commission also noted that there were some positive provisions within the act regarding notice that might be worth pursuing for Colorado, and Commissioner McGihon agreed to continue working with the newly organized ULC study group.



Commissioner Pike moved to table consideration on the Uniform Wage Garnishment Act indefinitely. Commissioner Gardner seconded and the motion passed 6 to 2.
