The resolution proposes a partial suspension of Senate Rule 12.03 to allow a conference committee to address specific matters related to House Bill 40, which pertains to the establishment of a business court in Texas. The committee is authorized to add new provisions that enable civil actions initiated before September 1, 2024, to be transferred to the business court, provided there is mutual agreement from the involved parties and permission from the business court itself. This provision aims to facilitate the handling of complex civil cases that may be challenging for district courts due to their existing caseloads.

Additionally, the resolution includes transition language that clarifies that the changes enacted by the bill will only apply to civil actions commenced on or after September 1, 2024, except for the specific provisions outlined in the newly added Section 25A.021 of the Government Code. This ensures that the business court can effectively manage cases that began prior to the specified date, thereby promoting a more efficient judicial process while maintaining the integrity of the business court's operations. The proposed changes are set to expire on September 1, 2035.
