13	13	statutes; relating to: fees for certain motor vehicle certificate of title transfers.
14	14	Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
15	15	Under current law, the Department of Transportation issues a certificate of title
16	16	to a new owner of a vehicle after ownership of the vehicle is transferred. The new
17	17	owner pays a $157 fee for a certificate of title after a transfer and a $7.50
18	18	supplemental title fee. Currently, these two fees are waived when a vehicle is
19	19	transferred upon a person's death to his or her spouse or domestic partner.
20	20	Under this bill, these two fees are also waived when a vehicle is transferred
21	21	upon a person's death to an immediate family member of the decedent. “Immediate
22	22	family member” is defined under the bill as “a spouse, grandparent, parent, sibling,
23	23	child, stepchild, stepparent, or grandchild, or the spouse of a grandparent, parent,
24	24	sibling, child, stepchild, stepparent, or grandchild.”
25	25	For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
26	26	an appendix to this bill.
