Description

FONES, Chief Justice. OPINION ON PETITION TO REHEAR The petition to rehear asserts that we have usurped the power of the people to control a constitutional convention and have misread and overruled Illustration Design Group, Inc. v. McCanless, supra. We fully recognize that it is the people and not the legislature who approve or reject the submission of constitutional subjects to the consideration of a limited constitutional convention. The legislature in proposing a convention, and in proposing the subjects for its consideration, is not exercising its legislative power to enact statutory law. It is acting as an agency of the people, performing the first step in the amending process by the convention method.
