Subject: Virginia Senate Bill 818
Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2003 14:31:38 -0500
Virginia Senate Bill 818 was defeated in the House of Delegates by a
vote of 81 nays and 15 yeses; it had previously passed the Senate by a
vote of 40-0. An email campaign by interested parties appears to have
influenced the House of Delegates vote.
Senate Bill 818 summary: Destruction of will files. Allows the clerk to
destroy a will's file along with the original will after 5 years have
passed since probate or recordation and allows destruction of originals
of instruments which have been recorded and remained un-retrieved by the
recording party after 6 months, if the documents are no longer of any
value and have been microfilmed.
