6/6/07-A bill has died that would have allowed judges to order people convicted of sex offenses involving children under 12 to buy distinctive license plates for their vehicles. The annual price tag for the plates would have been $50.
The Alabama Department of Revenue would have designed the license plate.
Sponsored by Rep. Marc Keahey, D-Grove Hill, HB545 remained in the House Judiciary Committee at the deadline to advance.
The bill would have applied to "private passenger or pleasure motor vehicles." Failure to comply with a judge's order could have netted offenders up to $3,000 in fines and up to six months in jail.
