Indicates Matter Stricken
Indicates New Matter

The House assembled at 12:00 noon.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by Rev. Charles E. Seastrunk, Jr., as follows:

Our thought for today is from Psalm 19:7: "The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple."
Let us pray. Almighty God, Your mercies are new to us every day. We offer to You our thanks for the blessings You give that make us wise. Keep these Representatives in Your care as they strive to carry out their duties to the best of their abilities. Bless our Nation, State, and all who labor in these Halls of Government. We remember especially Don Hottel and his son, Ben. Grant them Your mercy and compassion in their time of need. Protect our defenders of freedom at home and abroad, as they protect us. Heal the wounds, those seen and those hidden, of our brave warriors. Hear us, O Lord, as we pray. Amen.

Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER.

CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

The Senate sent to the House the following:

S. 1177 (Word version) -- Senators Hayes, Peeler, Gregory and Coleman: A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION TO RECOGNIZE YORK COUNTY AS A VITAL PART OF THE PALMETTO STATE, AND TO DECLARE FEBRUARY 8, 2012, "YORK COUNTY DAY" IN SOUTH CAROLINA.

Whereas, nestled between the Broad River on the West and the Catawba River on the East in the State's hardy Piedmont, York County is home to such jewels as Historic Brattonsville and illustrious Winthrop University; and

Whereas, with more than 232,815 South Carolina citizens, York County constitutes just over five percent of the State's total population; and

Whereas, York County is the State's fastest growing county, with an average annual-growth rate of nearly four percent and a nine-year population increase of almost thirty-two percent; and

Whereas, the estimated assessment of real and manufacturing property in York County exceeded six hundred eighty million dollars in 2011, which is a substantial increase from the previous year and represents approximately four percent of the State's total assessment of real and manufacturing property; and

Whereas, the state's eighth highest producing county in retail sales last year, York County provided more than four and a half billion dollars to State coffers and over four percent of South Carolina's total retail sales; and

Whereas, attractions such as Carowinds draw a myriad of visitors from all over North and South Carolina, and events like the Clover Scottish Games and Scotch Irish Festival and the South Carolina Strawberry Festival in Fort Mill showcase the warm hospitality and natural beauty of the county; and

Whereas, the citizens of York County passed their own one-cent sales tax in 1997, again in 2003, and yet again in 2011 to collect a total


Printed Page 555 . . . . . Tuesday, February 7, 2012

of four hundred thirty-five million dollars to be used to pay for critical road improvements, which also enhance the efficiency of the State's road system. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize York County as a vital part of the Palmetto State, and declare February 8, 2012, "York County Day" in South Carolina.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to each of the four chambers of commerce in York County.

The Concurrent Resolution was agreed to and ordered returned to the Senate with concurrence.

(B)(1)   The solicitor, upon ten days' written notice to the defendant, may petition a circuit court judge in the circuit to transfer one or more cases from the general sessions court docket to a docket of a magistrate's magistrates or municipal court in the circuit for disposition. The solicitor's notice must fully apprise the defendant of his right to have his case heard in general sessions court. The notice must include the difference in jury size in magistrate's magistrates or municipal court and in general sessions court. Both parties must have the opportunity to be heard by the circuit court judge and The case may be transferred from the general sessions court unless the defendant objects after notification by the solicitor pursuant to the provisions of this item. The objection may be made orally or in writing at any time prior to the trial of the case or prior to the entry of a guilty plea. The objection may be made to the circuit court judge who granted the petition chief judge for administrative purposes in the judicial circuit where the charges are pending, the trial judge, or the solicitor. Before impanelling impaneling the jury or accepting the guilty plea of the defendant, the trial judge must receive an affirmative waiver by the defendant, if present, of his right to have the case tried in general sessions court. The defendant must be informed that, if tried in general sessions court, the case would be tried in front of twelve jurors who must reach a unanimous verdict before a finding of guilty of the offense can be rendered in his case, and that if tried in magistrate's magistrates or municipal court, the case would be tried in front of six jurors who must reach a unanimous verdict before a finding of guilty of the offense can be reached in his case. The defendant may waive any and all of the rights provided in this subsection, in writing, prior to the impaneling of the jury or the acceptance of the defendant's guilty plea.

(2)   The judge must consider, but is not limited to, the following factors in granting the petition for transfer:

(a)   case workload;

(b)   age of the case;

The chief judge for administrative purposes for the court of general sessions shall retain administrative supervision of cases transferred pursuant to this section. The chief magistrate of the county or the chief municipal judge of the municipality, upon petition of the solicitor, and approval of the chief judge for administrative purposes for the court of general sessions, shall set the terms of court and order the magistrates and municipal judges to hold terms of court on specific times and dates for the disposition of these cases.

(D)   Provision for an adequate record must be made by the solicitor's office.

(E)   Notwithstanding another provision of law, all fines and assessments imposed by a magistrate or municipal judge presiding pursuant to this section must be distributed as if the fine and assessment were imposed by a circuit court pursuant to Sections 14-1-205 and 14-1-206. This section must not result in increased compensation to a magistrate presiding over a trial or hearing pursuant to this section or in other additional or increased costs to the county."
