FOREIGN LAWS – Adds to existing law to establish provisions prohibiting the use of foreign laws in Idaho courts.

Summary

The bill adds a new chapter to Idaho’s statutes that makes any court ruling based on a foreign law void if that law would deny fundamental rights such as due process, free speech, or religious freedom. It also invalidates contract provisions that choose foreign law or foreign jurisdiction when those choices would violate the same rights, with limited exceptions for certain entities and pre‑effective‑date agreements.
