  2 29    The bill makes the state records and archives Act in Code
  2 30 chapter 305 applicable to the executive and legislative
  2 31 branches exclusively.
  2 32    The bill provides that a person issued a citation for
  2 33 failing to carry their driver's license while operating a
  2 34 motor vehicle shall not be convicted of this offense if the
  2 35 person produces their driver's license to the clerk of the
  3  1 district court prior to going to court.  Current law provides
  3  2 that a person shall not be convicted of failing to carry their
  3  3 driver's license while operating a motor vehicle if the person
  3  4 presents their license at the time of the person's arrest or
  3  5 at the time the person is charged with failing to carry a
  3  6 driver's license while operating a motor vehicle.

  3 15 the underlying criminal case from which the motion arises.
  3 16    The bill provides that the clerk of the district court may
  3 17 have employees when authorized.  Current law provides that the
  3 18 clerk of the district court may employ deputies, assistants,
  3 19 and clerks.
  3 20    The bill provides the executor or administrator of an
  3 21 estate shall comply with the requirements of Code section
  3 22 633.480, which require the executor or administrator to
  3 23 deliver certificates pertaining to each parcel of real estate
  3 24 to the county recorder.
  3 25    The bill repeals Code section 636.13, which requires the
  3 26 clerk of the district court to keep a book of surety company
  3 27 certificates and revocations.
