House Bill No. [insert bill number] proposes to revise the duties of the Code Commissioner in Montana by mandating the inclusion of recommendations for legislation aimed at eliminating unconstitutional laws that have been permanently enjoined and are no longer in effect. The bill amends Section 1-11-204 of the Montana Code Annotated, specifically adding a new responsibility for the Code Commissioner to identify and recommend the removal of any law deemed unconstitutional by a court's final determination.

The amendments to the existing law include the insertion of language that emphasizes the need to eliminate laws that are not in effect due to a court ruling declaring them facially unconstitutional. This addition aims to streamline the legal code by ensuring that only valid and enforceable laws remain in the Montana Code Annotated, thereby enhancing clarity and reducing confusion regarding the state's legal framework.
