STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
▶ Show statement of purpose▼ Hide statement of purpose
This bill removes an antiquated section of code that allows for some plaintiffs to demand a trial within thirty (30) days in a particular and limited circumstance. This option is not offered to plaintiffs in other cases. Such demands place an undue burden on the court system and all of the other parties to the case. All of the plaintiffs’ other protections and rights are maintained.
FISCAL NOTE
▶ Show fiscal note▼ Hide fiscal note
This legislation causes no additional expenditure of funds at the state or local level of government nor does it cause an increase or decrease in revenue for state or local government; therefore, the legislation has no fiscal impact.
