James Sensenbrenner, Jr., makes over 60 clerical and technical corrections to title 18, United States Code, and other criminal laws. This bipartisan legislation resulted from extensive consultation between the majority and minority and the Office of Legislative Counsel and the Office of Law Revision Counsel. This legislation is cosponsored by Representative John Conyers, Jr., Ranking Minority Member, Committee on the Judiciary; Representative Lamar Smith, Chairman, Subcommittee on Crime; and Representative Robert C. Scott, Ranking Minority Member, Subcommittee on Crime. Background and Need for the Legislation The last half of the 20th century saw an explosion of Federal criminal statutes. According to a study conducted by the Task Force on Federalization of Criminal Law of the Criminal Law Section of the American Bar Association, ``[m]ore than 40% of the Federal criminal provisions enacted since the Civil War have been enacted since 1970.'' This explosion of lawmaking has resulted in numerous technical mistakes which litter the criminal code. This legislation corrects those mistakes. H.R. 2137 will make it easier to utilize the various criminal statutes that are improved by these amendments. Hearings Because of the noncontroversial nature of this legislation, the Committee did not hold any hearings on H.R. 2137. Committee Consideration On June 26, 2001, the Committee met in open session and ordered favorably reported the bill H.R. 2137, by voice vote, a quorum being present. Votes of the Committee The Committee took no rollcall votes on H.R. 2137. Committee Oversight Findings In compliance with clause 3(c)(1) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, the Committee reports that the findings and recommendations of the Committee, based on oversight activities under clause 2(b)(1) of rule X of the Rules of the House of Representatives, are incorporated in the descriptive portions of this report. Performance Goals and Objectives H.R. 2137 does not authorize funding. Therefore, clause 3(c) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives is inapplicable. New Budget Authority and Tax Expenditures Clause 3(c)(2) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives is inapplicable because this legislation does not provide new budgetary authority or increased tax expenditures. Congressional Budget Office Cost Estimate In compliance with clause 3(c)(3) of rule XIII of the Rules of the House of Representatives, the Committee sets forth, with respect to the bill, H.R. 2137, the following estimate and comparison prepared by the Director of the Congressional Budget Office under section 402 of the Congressional Budget Act of 1974: U.S. Congress, Congressional Budget Office, Washington, DC, July 3, 2001. Hon. F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr., Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary, House of Representatives, Washington, DC. Dear Mr. Chairman: The Congressional Budget Office has prepared the enclosed cost estimate for H.R. 2137, the Criminal Law Technical Amendments Act of 2001. If you wish further details on this estimate, we will be pleased to provide them. The CBO staff contacts are Lanette J. Walker and Melissa Zimmerman, who can be reached at 226-2860. Sincerely, Dan L. Crippen, Director. Enclosure cc: Honorable John Conyers Jr. Ranking Member H.R. 2137--Criminal Law Technical Amendments Act of 2001 H.R. 2137 would make several technical amendments to numerous sections of title 18 of the United States Code, and to other Federal criminal laws including spelling corrections, punctuation changes, syntax revisions, and removing duplicate and erroneous references. CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 2137 would have no impact on the Federal budget because all of the bill's provisions are technical in nature. The bill would not affect direct spending or receipts; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures would not apply. H.R. 2137 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal governments. The CBO staff contacts for this estimate are Lanette J. Walker and Melissa Zimmerman, who can be reached at 226-2860. This estimate was approved by Peter H. Fontaine, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.

Depositions to preserve testimony [(a) Whenever due to exceptional circumstances it is in the interest of justice that the testimony of a prospective witness of a party be taken and preserved, the court at any time after the filing of an indictment or information may upon motion of such party and notice to the parties order that the testimony of such witness be taken by deposition and that any designated book, paper, document, record, recording, or other material not privileged be produced at the same time and place. If a witness is committed for failure to give bail to appear to testify at a trial or hearing, the court on written motion of the witness and upon notice to the parties may direct that his deposition be taken. After the deposition has been subscribed the court may discharge the witness. A motion by the Government to obtain an order under this section shall contain certification by the Attorney General or his designee that the legal proceeding is against a person who is believed to have participated in an organized criminal activity. [(b) The party at whose instance a deposition is to be taken shall give to every party reasonable written notice of the time and place for taking the deposition. The notice shall state the name and address of each person to be examined. On motion of a party upon whom the notice is served, the court for cause shown may extend or shorten the time or change the place for taking the deposition. The officer having custody of a defendant shall be notified of the time and place set for the examination, and shall produce him at the examination and keep him in the presence of the witness during the examination. A defendant not in custody shall have the right to be present at the examination, but his failure, absent good cause shown, to appear after notice and tender of expenses shall constitute a waiver of that right and of any objection to the taking and use of the deposition based upon that right. [(c) If a defendant is without counsel, the court shall advise him of his rights and assign counsel to represent him unless the defendant elects to proceed without counsel or is able to obtain counsel of his own choice. Whenever a deposition is taken at the instance of the Government, or whenever a deposition is taken at the instance of a defendant who appears to be unable to bear the expense of the taking of the deposition, the court may direct that the expenses of travel and subsistence of the defendant and his attorney for attendance at the examination shall be paid by the Government. In such event the marshal shall make payment accordingly. [(d) A deposition shall be taken and filed in the manner provided in civil actions, provided that (1) in no event shall a deposition be taken of a party defendant without his consent, and (2) the scope of examination and cross-examination shall be such as would be allowed in the trial itself. On request or waiver by the defendant the court may direct that a deposition be taken on written interrogatories in the manner provided in civil actions. Such request shall constitute a waiver of any objection to the taking and use of the deposition based upon its being so taken. [(e) The Government shall make available to the defendant for his examination and use at the taking of the deposition any statement of the witness being deposed which is in the possession of the Government and which the Government would be required to make available to the defendant if the witness were testifying at the trial. [(f) At the trial or upon any hearing, a part or all of a deposition, so far as otherwise admissible under the rules of evidence, may be used if it appears: That the witness is dead; or that the witness is out of the United States, unless it appears that the absence of the witness was procured by the party offering the deposition; or that the witness is unable to attend or testify because of sickness or infirmity; or that the witness refuses in the trial or hearing to testify concerning the subject of the deposition or part offered; or that the party offering the deposition has been unable to procure the attendance of the witness by subpena. Any deposition may also be used by any party for the purpose of contradicting or impeaching the testimony of the deponent as a witness. If only a part of a deposition is offered in evidence by a party, an adverse party may require him to offer all of it which is relevant to the part offered and any party may offer other parts.

The court shall order, as an explicit condition of supervised release, that the defendant cooperate in the collection of a DNA sample from the defendant, if the collection of such a sample is authorized pursuant to section 3 of the DNA Analysis Backlog Elimination Act of 2000. The court shall also order, as an explicit condition of supervised release, that the defendant refrain from any unlawful use of a controlled substance and submit to a drug test within 15 days of release on supervised release and at least 2 periodic drug tests thereafter (as determined by the court) for use of a controlled substance. The condition stated in the preceding sentence may be ameliorated or suspended by the court as provided in section 3563(a)(4). The results of a drug test administered in accordance with the preceding subsection shall be subject to confirmation only if the results are positive, the defendant is subject to possible imprisonment for such failure, and either the defendant denies the accuracy of such test or there is some other reason to question the results of the test. A drug test confirmation shall be a urine drug test confirmed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry techniques or such test as the Director of the Administrative Office of the United States Courts after consultation with the Secretary of Health and Human Services may determine to be of equivalent accuracy. The court shall consider whether the availability of appropriate substance abuse treatment programs, or an individual's current or past participation in such programs, warrants an exception in accordance with United States Sentencing Commission guidelines from the rule of section 3583(g) when considering any action against a defendant who fails a drug test. The court may order, as a further condition of supervised release, to the extent that such condition-- (1) * * * * * * * * * * any condition set forth as a discretionary condition of probation in [section 3563(b)(1) through (b)(10) and (b)(12) through (b)(20)] paragraphs (1) through (9) and (11) through (19) of section 3563(b), and any other condition it considers to be appropriate. If an alien defendant is subject to deportation, the court may provide, as a condition of supervised release, that he be deported and remain outside the United States, and may order that he be delivered to a duly authorized immigration official for such deportation. * * * * * * * CHAPTER 228--DEATH SENTENCE * * * * * * * Sec. 3592. Mitigating and aggravating factors to be considered in determining whether a sentence of death is justified (a) * * * * * * * * * * (c) Aggravating Factors for Homicide.--In determining whether a sentence of death is justified for an offense described in section 3591(a)(2), the jury, or if there is no jury, the court, shall consider each of the following aggravating factors for which notice has been given and determine which, if any, exist: (1) Death during commission of another crime.--The death, or injury resulting in death, occurred during the commission or attempted commission of, or during the immediate flight from the commission of, an offense under section 32 (destruction of aircraft or aircraft facilities), section 33 (destruction of motor vehicles or motor vehicle facilities), [section 36] section 37 (violence at international airports), section 351 (violence against Members of Congress, Cabinet officers, or Supreme Court Justices), an offense under section 751 (prisoners in custody of institution or officer), section 794 (gathering or delivering defense information to aid foreign government), section 844(d) (transportation of explosives in interstate commerce for certain purposes), section 844(f) (destruction of Government property by explosives), section 1118 (prisoners serving life term), section 1201 (kidnapping), section 844(i) (destruction of property affecting interstate commerce by explosives), section 1116 (killing or attempted killing of diplomats), section 1203 (hostage taking), section 1992 (wrecking trains), section 2280 (maritime violence), section 2281 (maritime platform violence), section 2332 (terrorist acts abroad against United States nationals), section 2332a (use of weapons of mass destruction), or section 2381 (treason) of this title, or section 46502 of title 49, United States Code (aircraft piracy). * * * * * * * Sec. 3593. Special hearing to determine whether a sentence of death is justified (a) * * * * * * * * * * (c) Proof of Mitigating and Aggravating Factors.-- Notwithstanding rule 32[(c)] of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, when a defendant is found guilty or pleads guilty to an offense under section 3591, no presentence report shall be prepared. At the sentencing hearing, information may be presented as to any matter relevant to the sentence, including any mitigating or aggravating factor permitted or required to be considered under section 3592. Information presented may include the trial transcript and exhibits if the hearing is held before a jury or judge not present during the trial, or at the trial judge's discretion. The defendant may present any information relevant to a mitigating factor. The government may present any information relevant to an aggravating factor for which notice has been provided under subsection (a). Information is admissible regardless of its admissibility under the rules governing admission of evidence at criminal trials except that information may be excluded if its probative value is outweighed by the danger of creating unfair prejudice, confusing the issues, or misleading the jury. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the fact that a victim, as defined in section 3510, attended or observed the trial shall not be construed to pose a danger of creating unfair prejudice, confusing the issues, or misleading the jury. The government and the defendant shall be permitted to rebut any information received at the hearing, and shall be given fair opportunity to present argument as to the adequacy of the information to establish the existence of any aggravating or mitigating factor, and as to the appropriateness in the case of imposing a sentence of death. The government shall open the argument. The defendant shall be permitted to reply. The government shall then be permitted to reply in rebuttal. The burden of establishing the existence of any aggravating factor is on the government, and is not satisfied unless the existence of such a factor is established beyond a reasonable doubt. The burden of establishing the existence of any mitigating factor is on the defendant, and is not satisfied unless the existence of such a factor is established by a preponderance of the information. * * * * * * * CHAPTER 229--POSTSENTENCE ADMINISTRATION * * * * * * * SUBCHAPTER B--FINES * * * * * * * Sec. 3612.

The Committee met, pursuant to notice, at 10:35 a.m., in Room 2141, Rayburn House Office Building, Hon. F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr. [Chairman of the Committee] presiding. Chairman Sensenbrenner. The Committee will be in order. A working quorum is present. Pursuant to notice, I now call up the bill, H.R. 2137, a bill to make clerical and other technical amendments to title 18, United States Code, and other laws relating to crime and criminal procedure for purposes of markup and move its favorable recommendation to the House. [The bill, H.R. 2137, follows:]Chairman Sensenbrenner. Without objection, the bill will be considered as read and open for amendment at any point. The Chair recognizes himself for 5 minutes. The last half of the 20th century saw an explosion of Federal criminal statutes. According to a study conducted by the Task Force on Federalization of Criminal Law of the Criminal Law Section of the American Bar Association, more than 40 percent of the Federal criminal provisions enacted since the Civil War have been enacted since 1970. This explosion of lawmaking has resulted in numerous technical mistakes which litter the criminal code. This bill makes over 60 separate clerical and technical changes to various criminal statutes by correcting missing and incorrect words, margins, punctuations, redundancies, outmoded fine amounts, and cross-references. These and other changes will make it easier to apply these important statutes. This bill is bipartisan legislation, which resulted from extensive consultation between the majority and minority, and suggestions from the offices of legislative counsel and law revision counsel. I would like to thank all involved in the process of reviewing the minutiae of the code to put this legislation together. Let me also say that yesterday majority staff handling this issue received an informal memorandum from the Justice Department, asking that additional technical corrections be included in the bill. Because we have not had enough time to review these suggestions, we will not be including them as an amendment here today. However, I would like to continue to work with Mr. Conyers, Mr. Scott, and Mr. Smith of Texas on these with the intention of including these suggestions in the bill which are truly clerical and technical. I will now yield to the gentleman from Michigan for whatever comments he wishes to make. Mr. Conyers. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I ask unanimous consent to enter the statement of our colleague from Virginia, Mr. Bobby Scott, on this matter. Chairman Sensenbrenner. Without objection. Mr. Conyers. Thank you. Chairman Sensenbrenner. Without objection, all Members may insert opening statements in the record at this point. Are there amendments? Hearing none, the question occurs on the motion to report the bill, H.R. 2137, favorably as amended. Do we have a---- A reporting quorum is not present. Without objection, the previous question is ordered and further proceedings on this bill will be postponed. And would the staff please serve subpoenas on the missing Members? [Laughter.] [Intervening Business.] A reporting quorum is present. The Committee now returns to the pending unfinished business upon which the previous question was ordered on H.R. 2137. The question is on the motion to report favorably the bill H.R. 2137. Those in favor will say aye. Those opposed will say no. The ayes appear to have it. The ayes have it. Without objection, the Chair is authorized to move to go to conference pursuant to House rules. Without objection, the staff is directed to make any technical and conforming changes. All Members will be given 2 days, under House rules, in which to submit additional dissenting, supplemental, or minority views. This concludes the purpose for which this markup has been called, and the Committee stands adjourned. [Whereupon, at 10:40 p.m., the Committee was adjourned.] -
