Summary
The bill establishes where civil cases that name the Municipal Police Employees' Retirement System (MPERS) as either plaintiff or defendant must be filed. It limits the venue to East Baton Rouge Parish or the system’s domicile when MPERS is sued, and requires the case to be filed in the parish where the claim arose when MPERS sues. This clarifies jurisdiction and prevents forum shopping.
