ATLANTA – Today, the Georgia House passed Senate Bill 68, Governor Brian Kemp’s comprehensive tort reform legislation aimed at curbing excessive lawsuits and bringing balance to Georgia’s courtrooms. The legislation will now return to the Senate for consideration.
“Today, the Georgia House took another step toward delivering much-needed reform to our state’s current litigation environment,” said House Speaker Jon Burns (R-Newington). “The common-sense solutions provided by Senate Bill 68 protect the rights of Georgians who have been harmed, while ensuring that the scales of justice in our courtrooms are fair and balanced. We look forward to working alongside the Senate to champion this critical lawsuit reform across the finish line.”
