House Bill No. 7256 establishes a working group tasked with studying the civil procedure laws in the state, specifically focusing on titles 51 and 52 of the general statutes. The group will consist of six members, each appointed by various leaders from both the House and Senate, who possess expertise in civil procedure. The working group is required to submit a report detailing its findings and recommendations to the relevant joint standing committee of the General Assembly by January 1, 2026, or upon completion of its report, whichever occurs later. The bill also specifies that the working group will terminate once the report is submitted.
The bill does not introduce any new fiscal impacts on the state or municipalities, as it is expected that the working group will utilize existing expertise to fulfill its mandate without incurring additional costs. The legal language inserted into the current law includes the establishment of the working group and its reporting requirements, while no deletions from existing law are noted in the text provided.
