Providing compensation to victims of abusive lawsuits

Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill would allow a person who wins a civil lawsuit to recover their attorney fees and court costs if the other side's claim was dismissed for having no legal or factual basis. This applies if the claim was filed to harass, lacked evidence, or wasn't supported by law. The law would take effect in 2027 and generally applies to attorneys, not individuals representing themselves, unless they acted unreasonably.
