SS/SB 220 - This act would repeal the current Missouri
Digital Signatures Act contained in Sections 28.600 through
28.678, RSMo. This act also corrects the double enactment of
Section 28.681, RSMo. The act would enact the provisions of the
Uniform Electronic Transactions Act which would make electronic
transactions as enforceable as traditional paper transactions if
the parties agree to transact electronically. There are some
exceptions for documents which must still be executed manually
including laws governing the creation of execution of wills,
codicils or testamentary trust and other certain provisions of
the Uniform Commercial Code.
