Civil action against a person for failure to render aid in certain circumstances permitted.

HF 3468 permits individuals injured due to a failure to render aid in specific legally defined circumstances to file a civil lawsuit. It directly affects victims who were not assisted when required by existing law, allowing them to seek compensation for damages, court costs, and attorney fees. The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 609.662, by adding a new civil action provision. This change takes effect on August 1, 2026, applying to cases arising on or after that date.
