Summary

The bill adds a new section to Title 28 that obligates parties and their lawyers to reveal any outside person or entity that stands to receive money based on the outcome of a civil lawsuit. It applies to all civil actions filed after the law takes effect and includes safeguards for certain loan repayments, attorney‑fee reimbursements, and donor privacy.
