Appeal and Review - As enacted, expands when the state may appeal an interlocutory order of a circuit or chancery court. - Amends TCA Title 27, Chapter 1.

SB 1731 expands the Tennessee state's right to immediately appeal certain early-stage court decisions. It allows the state to appeal as of right when a court: grants or modifies an injunction against the state; denies a motion to dissolve such an injunction; denies sovereign immunity or qualified immunity for state officials; or denies a motion to dismiss in cases challenging the constitutionality of state law, executive orders, or administrative rules. This change directly affects the Tennessee state government by giving it more opportunities to challenge court rulings before final judgments in specific legal contexts. The bill modifies Tennessee Code Annotated § 27-1-101 to define these new appeal scenarios, making the process clearer for state attorneys.
