HB 274, 82nd R.S.
Relating to the reform of certain remedies and procedures in civil actions and family law matters.
Gov. Perry: lawsuit reforms will expedite justice for legitimate claims and help strengthen Texas' economic climate (Tex. H.B. 274 and S.B. 13, 82nd Leg., R.S.). It's time for Texas courts to make losers pay. Defense and plaintiffs attorneys riled up over tort reform bills. Some Texas bills merit watching on the business front. Some key Texas business bills could still see the light of day. Tort reform: sorry, losers. Attention-getting loser-pays not the star of H.B. 274. Success! Tort reform: closing the lottery. Plaintiff, defense groups join forces to oppose mandatory rule for expedited actions. |
