H.B. No. 1428 proposes to amend the jurisdiction of statutory probate courts specifically in Montgomery County by repealing Section 25.1723(c) of the Government Code. This repeal indicates a significant change in the legal framework governing these courts, although the specific details of the jurisdictional changes are not provided in the summary.

The bill stipulates that the changes will only apply to actions filed on or after the effective date of the Act, which is set for September 1, 2025. Actions filed prior to this date will continue to be governed by the existing law, ensuring a smooth transition and legal continuity for cases initiated before the new provisions take effect.

Introduced: Government Code 25.1723 (Government Code 25)
