SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Medical evidence admissible in juvenile and domestic relations district court. Places a medical laboratory on the same footing as a medical facility for the purpose of allowing laboratory analysis results into evidence. This change would allow a laboratory analysis to be admitted into evidence in child abuse or family abuse cases with only an affidavit of the analyst attesting to the truth and accuracy of the results and would avoid requiring the analyst to testify.
