Neville was the sponsor of Senate Bill 036 in 2016 that adjusted the requirements for the posting of a surety bond in conjunction with appealing a tax case. Prior to SB 036 being signed into law,a taxpayer who filed an appeal against the Colorado Department of Revenue was required to set aside twice the dollar amount which s/he was contesting regardless of which court hears the case. Upon the bill becoming law,however,that changed and the appellant is not required to set aside any money,unless s/he appeals to the Appellate or Supreme Court.
In 2017,Neville was the sponsor of House Bill 1313. This bill addressed some significant concerns within the protocol for executing civil asset forfeiture. HB 1313 strengthened citizens’rights when their property is seized and puts safeguards in place to help eliminate possible fraud.

Both of these bill passed and were signed into law in 2018. [7]
In the 2018 Senate elections,Neville's district was considered one of the two most competitive seats held by a Republican and was targeted by Democrats in their aim to regain control of the state Senate. [2] Neville narrowly won the seat in 2014 and Hillary Clinton won the district in the 2016 presidential election. [3] Despite the highly competitive nature of the district,Neville continued to run as a hardline conservative in an area quickly trending Democratic. He previously pushed legislation aimed at restricting abortion and loosening gun laws. [2] [3] Neville's Democratic challeger was Tammy Story,an education reformer. He lost the race by around a 14% margin to Story. [8]
