VETO MESSAGE ON SB 6006-S

                   March 21, 1994

To the Honorable President and Members,

  The Senate of the State of Washington

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     I am returning herewith, without my approval as to Section 3, Substitute Senate Bill No. 6006 entitled:

"AN ACT Relating to the judicial information system;"

     This bill amends current law relating to the judicial information system and allows the Supreme Court to increase by rule fines, penalties and assessments for deposit into the judicial information system account.  Funds from these increases will be dedicated to upgrading the computer information network utilized by the courts.

     Section 3 of this bill is an emergency clause.  Immediate implementation as provided by this section would not provide sufficient time for all jurisdictions to effect changes necessary to fully implement this legislation.  For this reason, I have vetoed section 3.

     With the exception of section 3, Substitute Senate Bill No. 6006 is approved.

                   Respectfully submitted,

                   Mike Lowry

                   Governor
