Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has signed a landmark bill overhauling the state's civil litigation system, a move hailed by supporters as a way to reduce excessive jury awards and protect businesses from costly lawsuits. The legislation, known as Senate Bill 68, was a top priority for Kemp and marks a significant victory for his administration. Proponents argue the reforms will help create a more business-friendly environment by limiting what they see as frivolous lawsuits. However, critics warn the changes could restrict victims' ability to seek justice and fair compensation in court. The new law is expected to have a major impact on how civil cases are handled in Georgia.
So basically, Georgia just made it a lot harder for regular people to hold big corporations accountable—what a win for the powerful, as usual.
Glad to see Georgia making it harder for ambulance chasers to cash in—protecting businesses from lawsuit abuse is a step in the right direction for economic freedom.
