The Reclaim Act.

Summary

The bill lets victims of domestic violence more easily have abusive partners declared vexatious litigants, even after a restraining order ends or after a conviction for a related crime. It also blocks those litigants from demanding protected information in discovery unless a judge finds good cause. The changes aim to curb litigation abuse that harms survivors.
