* Here is a quote from the above-linked 7th Weekly Legislative Update: "Mr. Johnson also noted the need for uniform procedures to deal with claims that imposing sex offender registration requirements on certain offenders violated the Indiana Constitution’s ex post facto clause under the Wallace v. State opinion. He stated that he was working on an amendment to the bill to establish procedures on venue, parties, and pleadings for offenders raising Wallace-based challenges to their registration obligations. The Committee held the bill until next Monday to consider amendments for Wallace procedures."
