AI Summary
This bill extends the life of the Post-Conviction Defender Oversight Commission, which is responsible for overseeing the work of attorneys who represent individuals after their initial conviction in criminal cases, until June 30, 2032. It achieves this by amending Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) sections related to government agency dissolutions and the creation of the commission itself, effectively removing a provision that would have caused the commission to expire and adding the commission to a list of entities that are subject to review and continuation.
