Public employees and officers: state; ability of the attorney general to bring an action in certain courts; modify. Repeals sec. 2 of 1919 PA 232 (MCL 14.102).

HB 5314 repeals a specific section (MCL 14.102) from an old 1919 law that required certain lawsuits brought by the Michigan Attorney General on behalf of the state to be filed in Ingham County circuit court. This procedural change eliminates the requirement for those cases to be filed in a specific county, allowing the Attorney General to file such lawsuits in appropriate courts as needed. The bill does not create new legal requirements or affect who can bring lawsuits; it only removes a historical jurisdictional rule. This is a straightforward procedural update with no direct impact on public employees, officers, or state operations.
