This legislation defines the term "willful or reckless misconduct," as used in Idaho Code Title 6, Chapter 16. A recent Idaho Supreme Court case noted the absence of a definition, which has caused uncertainty concerning the proper definition. Defining the term is important in order to bring clarity to Idaho liability laws.
