SB 1123 Oregon Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to court visitors.

SB 1123 grants court visitors immunity from legal liability when they act in good faith and within their official duties. This directly affects court visitors, such as volunteers or staff assisting in court settings, by protecting them from lawsuits related to their role. The key provision modifies a legal threshold (changing "25" to "125" in the bill text), clarifying the scope of this immunity. The law became effective January 1, 2026, after being signed by the Governor in June 2025.

Added official enrolled status header, signatures from Senate President, Governor, and Secretary of State, and filing dates indicating the bill has passed all legislative stages.
