Senate Bill No. 1548 establishes a working group tasked with studying the civil laws of the state, specifically reviewing provisions in various titles of the general statutes, including titles 51 and 52. The working group will consist of six members appointed by key legislative leaders, including the Speaker of the House, the President Pro Tempore of the Senate, and the majority and minority leaders of both chambers. The 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, and will dissolve upon submission of the report or on that date, whichever is later.

The bill does not introduce any new fiscal impacts on the state or municipalities, as it relies on the expertise of the appointed members to fulfill its objectives. 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. The bill received a favorable report from the Judiciary Committee with a vote of 38 in favor and 1 against.
