Relates to expediting actions involving insurance claims for damages resulting from a state disaster emergency
This bill speeds up insurance claim processing for property damage in counties where a state disaster emergency has been declared by the governor. It requires courts to hold a mandatory preliminary conference within 30 days of a claim being filed, followed by a settlement conference within 14 days after a formal case notice is filed. The bill also sets a 60-day deadline for completing discovery (exchanging evidence) and limits pre-trial motions to 30 days after the case notice. These rules apply specifically to insurance claims related to declared disaster emergencies, directly affecting homeowners and businesses seeking compensation for disaster-related property damage.
