Modifies provisions relating to the circuit court of Cole County, including its appellate district and venue of certain cases

Summary

The bill repeals two existing statutes and replaces them with new language that defines the Eastern District of the Court of Appeals to cover a long list of counties, including Cole County. It also creates a detailed framework for determining the proper county for filing civil lawsuits, especially tort cases and challenges to state laws, often directing them to Cole County. The changes would affect plaintiffs, defendants, and courts across the state.
